Kings, queens, and prophets have been singing the praises of Black Cumin seeds for over three millennia, and for good reason. As in any season, these tiny, ink black seeds have been used by ancient cultures and modern men and women as an invigorating tonic.
The supercritical extract of these seeds is more potent than tinctures and infusions. This special process expresses a fulsome lipid full of fatty acids, including 45-65% linoleic acid and 1% of the rare eicosadienoic acid. It consists mainly of thymoquinone, cymene, and thujene plant compounds.
This "seed for all things'" spicy aroma is a strengthening and heartening tonic.
