What is Black Seed Oil and what are some Black Seed Oil Benefits?

Black seed oil, also known as cumin oil, Roman coriander, black sesame, onion seed or black caraway seed has been used for thousands of years. It comes from the Nigella Sativa plant that is native to Asia. When the seeds are pressed, a potent oil is produced. The ancient Egyptians were the first to use this little black miracle. The Assyrians called it “tin tir,” and used it to cure stomach ailments. They also used it to treat rashes, bites, sores, and other inflammatory conditions. In Arabic cultures, black cumin is known as the “seed of blessing.” Scientists have been studying the compounds that show up in black seed oil since the 1960s. Alternative healers swear by this oil, because it contains more than 1600 natural compounds that treat a wide range of health issues. The most important elements in black seed oil are 3 natural phytochemical compounds:
