Black cumin seed oil originates back over 3,400 years! Russians call it “chernushka”; it is “faux Anis” in France, “happa sooda” in Oman, “gentle love of the mist” in North America, and “Roman coriander” in Rome. Nigella sativa and its black seed are known by other names, varying between places. Black cumin seed oil has been and is still used for numerous health and beauty reasons, in dozens of countries throughout the world.
An annual herbaceous plant, black cumin (Nigella sativa) is believed to be indigenous to the Mediterranean region, but has been cultivated in other parts of the world including the Arabian peninsula, northern Africa, and parts of Asia. Tiny and hairy, being no more than 3 mm in length, black cumin originates from the common fennel flower plant of the buttercup (Ranunculaceae) family. Nigella sativa is sometimes mistakenly confused with the fennel herb plant (Foeniculum vulgare).
Within institutes worldwide, black cumin seed oil is being studied as new therapies for chronic illness and their effects. Findings are identical to those in previous studies by earlier researchers. Studies show that by using black cumin seed oil, valuable unsaturated fatty acids, for example linoleic and gamma-linolenic acids, get into the organism. This allows a synthesis of important immune-regulating substances derived from prostaglandin E1. Linoleic acid stabilizes the cell membranes, and prostaglandin has the effect of inhibiting inflammation. Thus the immune reactions are stopped, reducing the symptoms of allergies such as hay fever. In addition, the excessive T9‑cell activity of the person suffering from allergies is stabilized through the substance found in black cumin seed oil, as are the abnormally rising immune reactions through suppressed antibodies.
Studies also testify that weak immune systems be regulated by the strong effect of the black cumin seed oil. Scientists have tested the effects of the oil on 600 patients, with results that confirm the relief for allergies at about 70% of the patients. Among them were allergies against pollen and dust, etc., who generally have a weak resistance and are prone to suffer from infections.
