Black Cumin Seeds

[SAMBS]

I came across this article via an email - on mercola.com - Is that one of the sites looked at by anyone here and have you heard about black cumin seeds?

"Traditionally, black cumin has been used for immune-system support, well-being, digestive health, respiratory issues, kidney and liver support, and heart health. In Asia and the Middle East, black cumin seeds have long been used to treat asthma, bronchitis, rheumatism and other inflammatory diseases."

The Arcticle also goes on to say that it has been used for people with cancer. I do tend to read things with a fair amount of initial scepticism! Especially if never heard about these 'magic' cures before!

A friend of mine (from the Middle East) put black cumin seeds on my porridge every morning when I stayed with him for a week. And, I must say, I did feel pretty good when I went home.

He gave me a jar to take home with me, but I lost it. Bought some more and lost that, too (you just can't imagine the state of my pantry!) so, I haven't had any since I got home. But I will get some more, and start consuming them again... One day.
