Black Seed - Black Cumin - Nigella Sativa - Miracle Cure?

Is it a miracle cure! It might just be. In dangerous times like this it might not be a bad idea to have some on hand.

Nigella sativa has also been described as the miraculous plant and considered by earliest herbal specialists as The herb from heaven. The Prophet Mohammed had described the curative powers of the black seed as a remedy for every illness except death

Antiviral Activity

"Nigella sativa seed oil was found to suppress viral load in murine model: cytomegalovirus infected mice to undetectable level in the liver and spleen in 10 days' intraperitoneal administration. This was possibly due to the increase in number and function of CD4+ve T cells and increased production of interferon- (INF-) gamma [115]. Interestingly, patients (30) with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, who were not eligible for IFN-α/ribavirin therapy showed significant improvement in HCV viral load (16.67% became seronegative and 50% showing significant decrement)


According to a case report conducted by Onifade et al., after treatment with 10 mL of black seed twice daily for 6 months, a complete regaining and seroreversion of a 46-year-old HIV positive patient was evidenced . In addition, a 27-year-old HIV infected woman was diagnosed during ante-natal care; she was not eligible for antiretroviral therapy; hence herbal therapist initiated her on black cumin and honey mixture (10 mL) thrice daily for a year. The repeat serology assessments for HIV infection became negative with undetectable viral load. "
