Black Cumin cures 50 diseases like Diabetes, Cancer, hypertension, skin diseases & so on!
So here we are again,
talking about something new. There are these black seeds which are called
healthy. When we dug deep into it, we found that these seeds are also referred
to as Roman coriander, black caraway or black cumin. These seeds are a product
of the Nigella Sativa plant, native to Europe, India, and Arabia. Now we have
already had an article about cumin seeds earlier,(which you can read for
reference)The seeds have been used for centuries to cure lots of heath issues
and defects going from curing headaches and toothaches to fighting intestinal
worms and infections.
Black cumin contains
beta-carotene, calcium, iron, sodium, and potassium. Also, it has 8 of the 9
essential amino acids which we are unable to produce inside our body. It does
not stop here; these seeds contain over 100 chemical compounds.
Apart from all those
compounds listed above, these black seeds are wonderful as they also contains
thymoquinone, beta sitosterol, myristic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid,
stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, arachidonic acid,
vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, folic acid, copper, zinc, and phosphorous.
We get many of the
black cumin's benefits and advantages along with proofs in the biomedical
literature. In fact, since 1964, there have been 656 published, peer-reviewed
studies referencing it. (Old is gold... isn't it??)
