Study noted was of poor design. Should have been third group that massaged the knee 3 times per day for 5 minutes without black seed oil. As noted, later in article, the therapeutic massage may have played a significant part in the results.
Or to improve ease of rubbing, some yype of hand lotion could have been used. Women, especially, put lotion on areas that might have dry skin, so would already know that lotion does not help arthritis.
BSO was a life saver to me when I had covid. I felt better with every dose. My only criticism of this study is that Tylenol (before I k ew not to touch it) never did anything for my pain. Only fever reduction. It would have been nice to see the BSO against an NSAID.
STH ,I have taken 1 dose of tylenol in my life ,(from the dentist,40 years ago) i suffered so , the inside of my head swelled up and I lost my hearing for 4 days . scared me so bad , that was the obvious symptom , no telling what horrors happened to me .
While I am a proponent of black seed oil, not everyone wants to slather oil on their knee. People like taking pills because they've been convinced this is good, plus it's easy to do for most people. The real reason natural treatments don't get much press is that they are generally not part of the industrial pharmaceutical complex. You know how mind-numbed normies are: easy to lead to self-harm and destruction.
Yes, many on the market don't contain much. This one does. Another, in capsule form, is MCSFormulas. 60 pills for $35, standardized to 65mg Thymoquinone each. So a little less but you get 60 rather than 20.
But for the liquid sold at Global Healing Center, can that be applied topically? Does it help headaches?
Just a DYI note I found works great. From my liver cleanse days to over come the gag reflex of oil coating your throat. Where olive oil for liver cleanse or Black Seed Oil.
Have a table spoon of Apple Cider Vinegar in a cup of warm water ready. Hold your breath, take a table spoon of Black Seed Oil, swallow while holding your breath and quickly wash it down with the warm water & ACV. A couple of times practice, you will not even taste the strong oil.
Liver cleanse with virgin olive oil takes a bit more fortitude.
Interestingly…I couldn’t get past the taste of BSO plain. Nor the seeds.
But, found by trial/error, either of those can be added to food you prepare, & it adds a slightly smoky flavor to the food. I like that.
Also, I put a Tblsp seeds in small cup, add tepid to warm water, let that sit a few hours. Makes tea. Drink the tea, & add the soaked seeds to food you fix, for a kinda Smokey flavor. It’s kinda tasty that way, & get the most benefits, I think.
what can I take for arthritic neck pain? I started taking ARTHRO8 a few days ago. I've taken too many ibuprofen and tylenol I'm supposed to get a heat ablation TX soon.
I’ve had epic neck issues. The worst was like tetany of neck—unable to move, barely reached home, sick from blinding pain, zero range of motion in neck. In desperation, Sent DH to a local bootleg seller, off tailgate by drive in theater. He returned, & slathered back of my neck & shoulders w/pure Dmso. It stopped that epic pain in less than 15 minutes. BUT, it numbed all the sensory nerves in the skin, & into the outer muscles layers for over a year.
And…Dmso is industrial waste compound from..the paper? Industry?? It has its uses tho. Just beware. Dilute it. Use sparingly.
NOW I have a decent quality red/infrared light gadget; it gives off over 1000 nanometers wavelength of infrared. That goes into deep tissues. Forget counting watts it uses! Look for high nanometers wavelength. That thing has done way more, faster, safer, to stop serious pain, from muscle & joint pain, even from turbo skin cancers trying to metastasize into bones & breast, than anything else!!
That thing very much helped stop those…in minutes to start, & kept using daily for a month, then as-needed…so, I avoided surgeries, chemo, radiation…
BUT: full disclosure: also used dietary, herbs, & heroic doses of USP pure Reduced L-glutathione, b’cuz this old body cannot make enuf these days, & b’cuz I witnessed an end-stage pancreatic cancer patient be cured of it, after about 3 cycles of an experimental regimen of only using the huge doses of that—verified by his original docs/scans.
In my age, I have been practicing what .i’ve always felt was correct: listening to that still small voice directing me to what was needed, & trusting that direction for the highest good.
I cannot tell others these will work for them. They have worked for me. I have healthcare training in both allopathic & natural methods. I’ve had mostly bad allopathic adventures in strange treatments, so, I chose to rehab self from stroke, heart attack, acute chronic appendicitis, IBS, various infections, etc. I grew up with relatives who knew some old things that helped save my life as a kid. I have experience listening to intuition, if you understand it that way.
Most do not have that knowledge & experience, so, take that under advisement. Your Mileage may vary.
Fran I would try 50% DMSO , 3 or 4 times a day . I don't take any meds , from big pHARMa. My go to is eucalyptus oil + peppermint oil , diluted with olive oil . takes away pain right now . "2 oz, eucalyptus , 1/2 oz peppermint , 2 oz. olive oil " . I mix in a 4 oz bottle .
A very valuable article. Interestingly, food therapy was a fundamental principle of ancient medicine. In Arabic medicine, more than ten books on dietary treatment have reached us. As for black seed, it is called "Habbat al-Barakah" (the blessed seed) in our region. There is a hadith (saying of the Prophet Muhammad) that says: "Use black seed, for it contains a cure for every disease except death." Thank you very much.
& the Bible says something about “let food be your nourishment & your medicine”. Clearly, far more ancient sources got brought forward included in religious writings of all kinds, including Ayurvedic, & TCM…because it has great merit.
Ancient knowledge is lost, when it either is ineffective, OR, when it is destroyed.
The current “civilization”, has been actively working to destroy the knowledge, since before the Inquisition burned thru Europe & beyond.
It is up to as many as can be encouraged to preserve it, to do so.
Inevitably, some cataclysm will bottleneck human population (it’s happened before), & only few will still have knowledge of these things—or of any technologies.
I love this stuff. I have found over the past 30 years other healing oils for pain , for 20 years I have been free of taking OTC meds , and used eucalyptus diluted with olive oil . I have now added peppermint to my mix , which incredible . it heals all my pain . a few drops . I also use on my face for sinus pain and infection . BTW in the past I have tried black cumin seed oil , and at the time did not find relief , but have been taking black cumin seed powder in capsules for many years every day . Thanks Sayer , good article . BTW I am in my senior years , and that started me looking for natural remedies , because Big pHARMa was trying to kill me with antibiotics and other meds . I have been following you for decades . Thank you so much . I also use eucalyptus +olive oil + peppermint oil every day , I don't see how I could get through a day without it . my skin is beautiful .I use it from head to toe .
There has been a lot of negative talk abut seed oils and the harm they cause due to the way seed oils are manufactured. Is Black seed oil, an essential oil made from soaking black seed in another healthy oil, like olive oil or it is manufactured like other seed oils?
Those seed oils, b’cuz of the nature of seeds, the minit seeds are pressed, & how they are pressed, spoil/rancidify, fast—some faster than others, depending on each seed component profile. Some faster than others.
Industries commonly over-heat plant substrates during pressing. That heat denatures much of the benefits—so, it’s like eating empty calories of food—malnutrition results. Diseases follow.
But get actually cold-pressed (no warmer than about body temp), the benefits can be remarkable!!
Even companies (I.e., spectrum nat’ls), claim cold-pressed, but, overheat the seeds/oil during pressing, to upwards of 130*F. & higher. It extends shelf-life, allows shelf-stable.
If actually cold-pressed, requires refrigeration, small batches, use quickly (mileage varies depending on type of seeds).
The biggest industry started out by using Pasteur’s personally refuted “germ theory” as a cornerstone for industry, because it is a profitable model (germs attack us). Then they got laws passed around 100 yrs ago, that limited “treatments” (not cures), to only “cut, poison, burn” (surgery, chemo, radiation). That same industry controlled med.schools, & most of the Continuing Ed. required to sustain licensure. & so on.
In the 1970s, they got laws passed 1st, to allow docs to advert direct to public, then, to allow pharmacies to advert direct to public. On the heals of that, a mad-dash to reinvent symptoms as stand-alone “diseases”. Lunacy ads hence.
Articles I read years ago, said Covid virus was being tweaked in labs, in the 70s, to see what happened. Not long later, the annual flu shots started ..hard-pushing.. everyone to hurry up, this year’s gonna be the worst ever—escalating fear factor annually. In about the 90s, many more, disgusted from getting annually sickened by flu after having vaccine, stopped getting them, in bigger numbers.. then..2020, whadaya know? Shutdown. & glory be, numerous big industries were suddenly recup’ing their slipping profit margins. Certain stock portfolios exploded in value, overnite, the nite of the shutdown announcement. Cities were silent. Folks cut off socially, & many more ways. Fear was used/escalated.
The enormity of this form of drastic consumer & social engineering, on worldwide scale, is breathtakingly, overwhelmingly loud.
Radiation, too, safety/efficacy faked. I helped staff a research on rad.bead implants, around 1987–totally faked to get desired results—big money involved. When cognizant staff have all died-off, no more witnesses to that fraudulent research. I may be one of the only ones still alive. They even destroyed the hospital wing it was done in, telling public: “seismic instability”. Lies.
Please. It begs any credibility & logic, that the shutdown was an infectious pandemic. Evidence exits, but buried, that “Typhoid Mary” was a patsy. That lie started around 1918. Big money new industries started being pushed, due to shutdown.
The huge & growing numbers of poor, disabled, & elders, ARE living evidences of very chronic, bad industrial practices. Bad ethics gone laser-focused on profits at any cost. These 3 groups of humans are most targeted for depopulation, to ditch living proofs of corporate malfeasance, & their determination to continue business-as-usual.
& that’s only the core nuggets. There’s more. Why do you think they 1st targeted elders, w/covid 2020? Why else does that industry witch-hunt nature, taint foods, & destroy those who speak up? Why else would they push politics to “put women back in their place”? Etc.!?
I’ve tried Black Seed 2 times and became violently ill for hours both times! I must be allergic? I’m not typically allergic to anything but I think I am giving it up!
Depends on your body, & your history of exposures to toxic things.
Some very healing things, can start to detoxify a body so fast, person feels sick from stored toxins suddenly coming out of where body hid them, trying to protect itself…a “Herksheimer reaction”. In that case, start w/smaller amounts, & slowly increase as able.
OTH, if allergic, that usually shows as hives, narrowing airways. Or, If “sensitivities”, can be gut irritant, such as from eating manufactured food.
Some folks react that way (nausea, even vomiting) to certain flavors…they need a different way of taking those.
You might try: put about 1/2 tsp. whole black seeds, in a cup. Add hot water to fill cup. Let steep about an hour or more. Sip the tea—flavor is gentler. Can also add small amounts of the soaked seeds, to healthy food you know works for you…it ads a little bit if Smokey-like flavors, to foods that way. Chew well. That reduces quantity, & still gives benefits, at smaller amounts, gentler.
Alternately, if the oil is what you have, try rubbing the oil on a small patch of belly skin. Observe for 24 hrs….redness? Swelling? If yes, quit. If no, maybe try some of the above tactics, to gradually help body use it. The oil can be put in 1-drop amounts, into warm water, maybe with rosemary leaf tea. Rosemary is an excellent antioxidant, & may help your body use both.
Study noted was of poor design. Should have been third group that massaged the knee 3 times per day for 5 minutes without black seed oil. As noted, later in article, the therapeutic massage may have played a significant part in the results.
Or to improve ease of rubbing, some yype of hand lotion could have been used. Women, especially, put lotion on areas that might have dry skin, so would already know that lotion does not help arthritis.
At presently I use DMSO , I take black seed oil oraly , thinking to use both - thanks
I’m using a mixture of 60% black seed oil and 40% DMSO
Do you dilute the DMSO? Do you mind if I ask where you get yours from! Sounds like a great combo.
www.dmsostore.com
Dmso needs diluted, but with lab-pure water.
Dmso instantly bonds w/any other element present, & carry it into deep tissues. If used pure, it harms/damages sensory nerves in the skin.
I know from experience.
I use 99% pure DMSO. I’m in New Zealand and buy it locally
BSO was a life saver to me when I had covid. I felt better with every dose. My only criticism of this study is that Tylenol (before I k ew not to touch it) never did anything for my pain. Only fever reduction. It would have been nice to see the BSO against an NSAID.

Wow that’s wild! I know it’s awful but for me it was just ineffective.

Black seed oil is amazing stuff. And Dr Group has the best product on the market imo.

Good idea! Black seed oil is horrible tasting. Used it once. Once was more than enough.

Could someone clarify this?
Thanks
Cold pressed is best.
It's not like other seed oils, no. I'm sure this is explained someplace on GreenMedInfo but can't readily find it. I've seen it discussed many other places. There are healthy seeds/oils but how we generally use the term for BAD seed oils is talking about the industrially produced Big Food products... https://freespoke.com/podcasts/386456/the-truth-about-seed-oils-and-how-to-avoid-them-with-dr-cate-shanahan-episode-rerun?t=372.44
Thanks I'll check out that podcast. Nuts and seeds are generally healthy to eat, so I've puzzled about why their oils might be bad.
It has to do more with the processing than the original plant... generally speaking.

When they get rancid .
Please correct "millimeter" (a unit of length) to "milliliter" (a unit of volume) in your article's sentence that reads as follows:
"Consider also that 1 millimeter is only about 1 gram."
Tylenol is fine. Why would you need an alternative?
