Ancient Ethiopians coveted the black seed as a cure for nearly everything and today Ethiopians continue to swear by this oil especially during gunfam/cold and flu season. The oil has seen a resurgence and once again people are seeking out black seed for its amazing benefits. Numerous scientific studies have been conducted showing the benefits of black seed oil. Ethiopian black cumin seed oil is naturally grown in the Bale Valley of Ethiopia. The richness of the soil and the proximity to the equator are believed to produce an oil superior to those grown in other regions of the world. The seed oil is extracted from the harvested seeds of the Nigella Sativa plant.
Black cumin seed oil is used for many different health reasons. The oil increases the number of red blood cells, which helps to improve anemic conditions and associated symptoms. Aside from relieving cold and flu symptoms, black seed oil is also meant to aid digestion by increasing stomach acidity, reducing nausea, vomiting, and bloating. It is high in minerals, especially iron, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.
Here’s one way of using it according to https://salamnutrition.com/:
For adults, take one (1) teaspoonful (5ml) twice daily, preferably with a meal. Can be used in oatmeal, mixed with yogurt, cottage cheese, salad dressings, blended beverages and protein drinks. Or try a few drops of black seed oil mixed with hot milk or tea sweetened with honey. It does have an intense taste but its alleged virtues are worth the bitterness!
