Black seed oil: amazing little seeds

Black seeds, also sometimes called black cumin seeds, originated 5,000 years ago as a medicinal base. Today, 200 medical studies reveal their therapeutic uses.

Anecdotally, they are said to "cure everything but death!" And research is beginning to prove it. Studies show that this versatile oil can regulate the immune system, improve blood sugar, and have anticancer activity (Butt et al, 2010).

Enerex Cumin Seed Oil comes from Turkey and offers a 100% cold-pressed oil for maximum potency of its rich properties, and is taken as an antioxidant supplement or as an alternative to other anti-bacterial, anti-viral, or immune-boosting herbs. It is the unique ingredients in cumin seed oil, called crystallized nigellone and thymoquinone, that eliminate invading bacteria and viruses and destructive rogue molecules.

In addition, Enerex Cumin Seed Oil is 100% pure and wild, and it contains vitamin E and various tocopherols and super antioxidants.

The Best Seeds

Cumin seeds contain over 100 active chemical compounds that can promote health. The three most studied ingredients for their benefits are:

1. Crystallized Nigellone – Highly studied for its increased immune function, especially in respiratory health;
2. Thymoquinone – Highly studied in cancer treatment, a compound not yet detected in any other plant;
3. Beta-Sitosterol – Highly studied for treating gallstones, urinary/prostate health, cancer, and lowering cholesterol.

Other nutrients in cumin seeds include:

• Cumin seeds contain good fats: oleic acid (the health-promoting element of olive oil); polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, and unsaturated fatty acids, including omega-3 (linolenic acid), omega-6 (linoleic acid), and omega-7 (palmitoleic acid and arachidonic acid).
• They contain proteins: 8 of the 9 essential amino acids combined to form a complete protein.
• Cumin seeds also contain vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, folic acid, calcium, iron, copper, zinc, and phosphorus.

ILLNESSES

Enerex Cumin Seed Oil is a powerful antiviral and antibacterial remedy, and several studies show that cumin seeds can reduce even the most virulent strains of salmonella and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This powerful oil is patented for its antibacterial effects, which are due to a unique ingredient called thymoquinone.
