Although black cumin is mentioned in religious texts like the Bible and the Quran, it was only in the last 40 years that extensive research began to uncover its astounding effects. Prestigious universities have conducted numerous studies, shedding light on the benefits of this incredible ingredient.
Black cumin seeds have been used for centuries in traditional medicine. The famed Greek physician Dioscorides, known for his comprehensive reference work on medicinal plants, used black cumin seeds to treat migraines and toothaches. In Arab cultures, they are referred to as the “seed of blessing,” with Islamic prophet Mohammed even proclaiming them to be “a remedy for all diseases except death.”
One reason behind the powerful properties of black cumin seeds is their complex chemical structure. With over 100 different chemical compounds, including essential fatty acids, these small seeds provide a wealth of health benefits. While black cumin oil is commonly used, the slightly spicy seeds can also be incorporated into cooking, adding flavor to dishes like rice, pastries, and Mediterranean cheeses.
