If you’ve never taken Black Seed Oil before, we recommend that you start with our Original oil. If you’re switching to our Oil from another brand, we suggest starting on our Strong oil. You can find more answers about Strengths & Dosages here.
We have put together some suggestions for dosage which you can find here.
No. You do not need a prescription for Black Seed Oil. It is a natural food supplement.
We recommend taking Black Seed Oil daily.
Black Seed Oil is best used as an everyday preventive supplement, and therefore taking a break from it is something that we advise against.
The idea behind our Dosage & Strength suggestions is that you work your way up through the strengths and gradually increase the dosage to a point that you feel content with. The aim is to rid toxins from the body and then help support the immune system; thus lowering the risk of getting sick again in the first place.
Whilst its benefits are well-known to help in the treatment of various ailments, prevention is of course better than cure. It is for this reason that we advise taking Black Seed Oil daily.
What some customers do choose to do however is work their way up to our Strong oil, and then save the Super-Strength for when an extra boost is required (Eg. During Flu season).
Or alternatively if you find that our Super-Strength oil works better for you, simply increase the dosage a little during Flu season.
Strength & dosage can be increased and decreased as and when required – this will vary from person to person. But we firmly advise against taking a break from it completely.
There are very few known side effects, which you can read about here. However if you are unsure – particularly if you are taking prescribed medication or have a medical condition, we would always advise checking with your GP.
You could describe the taste as a mixture of Black Pepper, Onion, Oregano, and perhaps even liquorice. A good quality Black Seed Oil has a real spicy profile, which can make your tongue tingle in the same way that Chilli powder will.
You can mask the taste by following up with a spoonful of good quality honey, or by a small glass of fresh fruit juice. Alternatively, Black Seed Oil Capsules offer a near tasteless way of consuming the oil – as well as adding further convenience and with less mess.
This is not possible to convert, because MG is a measurement of weight and ML is a measurement of volume. Given our Oil is 100% Natural and unfiltered, the weight per ML will vary. As the ML increases, the difference in weight can become substantial — meaning any conversion that we give you would be inaccurate.
Our simple advice would be to follow the dosage suggestions.
Natural health is extremely important to us and we truly believe in the natural healing abilities that natures blessed seed has to offer.
We also care greatly about the quality of our products, which is why our oils are 100% Natural, Unfiltered, and contain absolutely no additives or preservatives.
Our Seeds are certified Organic in their country of origin.
Whilst we’re not yet allowed to label our products as Organic here in the UK without completing a very lengthy and expensive certification process, we can say that 1) our oils are Non-GMO, 2) our plants are grown Organically, and 3) we can tell you that our Oil is pressed from Organic Nigella Sativa Seeds.
Truth be told, the Nigella Sativa plant doesn’t need any help to grow – merely a hot climate and good quality soil.
UK Organic Certification? We hear you. We’re working on it.
