A SEED WITH
FANTASTIC PROPERTIES

3000.BC is a tribute to nigella (Nigella Sativa Seed, also known as "Black Cumin"), traces of which have been found 3000 years b.c.

Nigella was used in ancient times and during the Babylonian civilization.

Egyptian physicians added nigella seeds to all the meals of the pharaohs for the quality of its nutrients and its medical benefits. Nigella seed oil is said to be one of the beauty secrets of Nefertiti and Cleopatra, and a vial of nigella oil was even discovered in the tomb of Tutankhamun (to ensure his immortality after death, according to their tradition).

Hippocrates, Dioscorides, and Galen recommended its consumption for various health problems.

In the Middle East and North Africa, prophetic tradition tells us that it cures all ailments except death and that it is a blessed seed. Many recent scientific studies have brought nigella back into the spotlight for its exceptional properties.

Unique and rich composition

 

The unique and highly rich chemical composition gives it various very interesting properties. Nigella oil is indeed considered to be both a plant oil (mostly) and essential. It consists of 3 major active principles:

THYMOQUINONE

Found only in nigella oil, it is the so-called "essential oil" component that gives it its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antihistaminic, and antibacterial properties.

THYMOHYDROQUINONE

An aromatic compound also found in certain plants like oregano or wild bergamot. It is considered an emerging therapeutic molecule.

THYMOL

A major component of nigella oil, it is also found in several essential oils, particularly thyme oil. Today, thymol is included in the composition of various medications.
