The remarkable black cumin seeds are known for their ability to stimulate the immune system and naturally eliminate cancer cells. Research on their qualities began around forty years ago when they were discovered in Tutankhamun’s tomb and described in both the Bible and the Quran.
Historical and Cultural Significance
Numerous studies, carried out by prestigious universities, have shown the incredible effects of this component. The Greek physician Dioscorides used black cumin to treat headaches and toothaches. Referred to as the “seed of blessing” in Arab cultures, it is believed in Islam that Prophet Mohammed considered black cumin capable of curing almost any illness—except death.
Powerful Chemical Composition
Black cumin seeds have therapeutic properties due to their complex chemical makeup, which includes more than 100 distinct compounds, some of which are essential fatty acids. While black cumin oil is quite popular, the seeds themselves have a mildly spicy flavor that can enhance recipes such as rice dishes, pastries, and Mediterranean cheeses.
