EGYPTIAN BLACK CUMIN SEED OIL

Black cumin - the "all-rounder" from the Orient

First things first: black cumin has nothing to do with caraway or cumin - neither botanically nor in terms of taste. Black cumin oil is extracted from the seeds of the "true black cumin" (botanical name: Nigella sativa) and was already regarded by the ancient Egyptians as an "all-rounder" for a wide range of ailments: Headaches, problems with the respiratory tract, skin, stomach, digestion and many more. Not least because Egyptian black cumin oil contains a multitude of valuable nutrients: essential oils, minerals such as selenium, zinc, magnesium and copper, almost all essential amino acids as well as vitamins B1, C, E, beta-carotene, folic acid and biotin.

Ancient Egyptian kings swore by the power of black cumin oil - and they were even given a bottle of the oil as a burial gift on their eternal journey. Around a thousand years later, the precious oil from the Orient found its way to medieval Europe, where it was once highly prized, but then fell into oblivion ...

Today, Egyptian black cumin oil and its versatile properties have been very well researched and are "back on the rise" among health and nutrition-conscious people - e.g. to normalize blood sugar levels in the body*.

Black cumin seed oil with 55% essential linoleic acid

Linoleic acid is the best-known polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid, which plays an important role in inflammatory processes in the human body. It is one of the essential nutrients. This means that the body cannot produce linoleic acid itself - and must therefore be supplied with food. In the skin - especially in the outermost layer (protective layer against environmental influences) - linoleic acid also plays an important role in regulating the water balance (keyword "dry skin/itching").
