And it's really an all around great tonic, but I don't see it under "Cures. " Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place? Black Seed Oil is Cumin Seed.
EC: Yes, we have a page for it in our Herbs section!

Lisa, Thanks for your info on black seed oil and asthma. This is wonderful! How much did you take per time: 1/2 teaspoon, 1 teaspoon,? Did you take it 2 times per day? On an empty stomach? Thanks for helping others.

Hi Lauren... Black seed oil has been used for centuries in Muslim healing. It has a remarkable battery of medicinal uses.
But don't confuse Black Cumin Seed oil with Black Seed oil. There are products made in India that are purported to be made from nigella sativa -- but black cumin seed is not nigella sativa. So beware.

I am confused by your response..Is black cumin seed oil and black seed oil the same?
Black seed oil, also known as black cumin, comes from the Nigella sativa (N. sativa) L. (Ranunculaceae) plant and has been used in plant medicine for thousands of years. The oil is made by extracting it from the seeds of the plant.

Hi Shane... I bought my Organic Black Seed oil from ebay.com.
I originally bought the oil because it is a very useful anti-fungal -- it kills candida -- and so I wanted to try it. Black Seed oil also contains omega 3 and omega 6 oils in a similar ratio to flaxseed oil -- but this oil also contains significant amounts of amino acids and vitamins that all tend to act synergistically for the benefit of the body.
I usually take a tablespoon of this oil before meals once or twice a day. The oil has many beneficial properties and when I started using it, my vision seemed to improve -- my eyes don't get tired so quickly from reading now. This oil also seems to have the ability to cure allergies and is therefore highly beneficial to the immune system and the intestines in this respect.

Thank you Bill so much!! Your quick reply and help to locate the correct oil is really appreciated. I wonder Bill why anyone would be using any other products on here as the list is endless to the cures of this Oil, amazing stuff, will let you know how it works for me. Shane

Hi Bill of San Fernando Philippine, can you email me where you buy your Black seed oil, because I'm trying to search for it, and it seem that some Company are identifying Black cumin oil is the same as Black seed oil.

Hi Albert...I bought my organic Black Seed Oil from ebay.com. See this link.
There is also a group of Indian shops off United Nations Avenue. Turn from Roxas Blvd and head down UN Avenue until you see the Unilever building on your left before the overpass, then turn off right into a small forecourt area to park. There are several Indian delis, grocery shops and Indian pharmacies there. In India, black seed oil is commonly used for cooking, so you might also be able to buy black seed oil there.
Be careful you do not buy black cumin seed oil or black caraway seed oil -- these are not made black seed. Black seed is also known by its latin plant name of Nigella sativa.

Hi Bill,
I wondered if you know if this is the correct Black Seed Oil, because it says it is the latin name you mention but also says black cumin seed. Thank you.

Hi Rsw... The Black Cumin Seed product in the link looks like the correct black seed oil. Unfortunately, Black Cumin Seed label seems to be synonymous with Black Seed and both can be used in the Middle East to describe Black Seed oil. They also mention, in their product description, that the black cumin seed oil is derived from the Nigella sativa plant and is 100% pure -- this is what you want. They also make it from Egyptian black seed which is the best source by far.

Thank you, Bill. I have purchased a few products recently that I later found out were the wrong ones, so I'm glad this was OK. We are so thankful to you, Ted and the others who share your knowledge so freely to help us.

Hi, the source (country) of the blacks seeds is very important as this is affected by climates, soil, fertiliser. Additionally the method of pressing is important.
The Nigella sativa plant is native to the Middle East and undoubtedly the climate there produces the best quality seed. Any flowering crop grown where fluctuations in temperature occur over a 24 hour period will lock in high concentrations of sugars, protein and oils. The method of extraction should be pure cold pressed (avoid any oils which do not state this explicitly).

I don't know where you live, I bought black seed oil in Stratford, East London (old shopping centre) there is a health shop opposite footlocker. For chest problems try fennel seeds in boiling kettle water in a cup. Brew this for about ten minutes and drink the yellow colour liquid.

Does your Black Seed Oil smell like turpentine? Does it taste really bad? I take it then chase it with a smoothie but I cannot get the taste out of my mouth all day.

I didn't care for the taste either so I bought capsules with the liquid (BSO) in them. So much better. I also bought the liquid to use topically. Got them both from Amazon.

They both can thin the blood, but personally, I would not worry too much, unless you are taking large doses of either... or taking aspirin too.
IMO. Lumbrokinase may be a much better bet... 30X stronger and much less bleeding risk. (Not medical advice)

I read that BSO has tons of great benefits... but cumin seeds are high in histamine... yes? Still... BSO is touted to be great for allergies... which is it?
I think I may be very histamine intolerant... going to try Lugols iodine and some other things to combat it... but would like to add BSO to the mix...

Never had nausea from it. Stores sell small bottles of it, which is what I use. A teaspoon now and then. Maybe return the gels and try another brand. If you take any oil or pills on an empty stomach you may get nausea. Eat something small with it next time perhaps.
Black Seed Oil Side Effects
-Two weeks ago I discovered a very large boil/cyst/pimple on my elbow, very tender to touch.
-One day later I woke up to an infection on side of breast. Went to doctor and was put on antibiotics with probiotic.
-Now I have developed mild infected cuticles on three separate fingers.
Is there a chance this is infection leaving my body via the skin, because of the BSO detox?
Yes, the skin is an avenue for excretion of toxins when the liver is overloaded, so these very likely are from detox, although you didn't mention what type of infection. Increase your water intake, at least 2 litres a day, add some liver herbs like milk thistle, dandelion, reduce your bso dosage for a few days, maybe half. For topical application of rash, pimples etc I have success with bentonite clay. With a recent ridiculous swelling of thumb (after gardening) and throbbing I had no success for 9 days, it wasn't bad initially and I thought it would go away, until I soaked it in a cup of water with a spoon each of Epsom salts, see salt, borax and baking soda. For about 6 hours. Next morning swelling and pain had gone down considerably. You may like to try that for your fingers. Don't worry if you don't have the borax salts, the point is to make a mineral rich bath. Oh I had not tried the clay on pimples at this time, if I had need for this again I would add clay.
Best to you

Yes, because it cleanses everywhere first off and you will probably find that you no longer have it by the time this goes to print...I take 1 teaspoon each evening before tea and find that it is best taken with grapefruit juice..The tartness of the juice seems to compliment the taste of the oil...unless you are an absolute diehard I wouldn't take it on it's own...yeerk .!
I buy my black seed oil from Israel through ebay...last bottle cost around $22 incl postage to Australia.
It is reasonably priced and cold pressed as well. Jenn x
Jenn, Could you provide the link or at least the brand name of the oil you purchase from Israel on Ebay or at least the brand name of the oil ? Thank you

Please take less or stop taking. It is heating up your body therefore creating infections. This is not a sign of detoxification.

Hi Trish, I take Amazing Herbs black seed oil as well 1 tsp, 2X a day. It does tastes mildly like turpentine....When I took it initially, all the mucous in my sinus' and lungs came out over the period of 3 days. It has reduced my asthma symptoms greatly. Wonderful immune booster overall! Let me know how you feel with it!

I found that I got used to the taste fairly quickly but I follow up right away with a spoonful of raw organic honey. The two just seem to go together now and I look forward to it in the morning before I leave for work.

HSV 1 and HPV

Three weeks ago, warts were detected on my urinary tract. Went for freezing treatment and to my surprise, each treatment effectively cleared the warts in just one treatment. The second treatment cleared warts which were deeper in my tract. Doctor told me I probably needed at least 8 to 10 treatments to clear all warts but we cleared it in just two weeks. I don't know if that's normal or if it's actually the black seeds which helped.
Next week or 10 April 2013 I will go for another blood test to see if the Herpes HSV 1 and HPV viruses are still in my body. Due to a week immune system I think I will need three months instead of one. But I will just try and see if the viruses are dead. Check back on 10 April. I'll update here.
