can black seed or Nigella Sativa really help us.

[spstriken]

First of all I am saw some reports on messo about testicular cancer resulting from the use of finasteride / dutasteride.

Now I searched and found this. please look at the healing power of black seed.

vetmedmosul.org/ijvs/media/conf-2-20e.pdf

if you look at page 126 at figures 2 and 6 you can see clearly how much nigella sativa has improved sperm qualities.

There are so many benefits mentioned in all over the nets that they are hard to believe.
Can some one find any negative information and post it over here. I seriously thinking to go and buy the extract and start using it.

[scaredtodeath]

sounds promising - why not try??

[spstriken]

yes I would soon give it a try but I want to as critical as possible as well. I am in search of it’s negative side effects, or any story on any forum whick tells other wise.I am also looking how it affects gynocomastia. If you or any other user can find it , please post it.

NS can also be used to cause epgentic changes and increase the acetylation process. Is not what Awor is talking about.

on a side note: I used NS and it definitely gave me energy boost and shining skin but also quickly upset my stomach. So I had to stop it and have not taken since. It has very bitter taste. Maybe we should roast or boil it first.

i have been using black seed for some time now, it has antibacterial properties and lots of vitamins, minerals and amino acid
Mercy Oil check that, it is of high quality, in germany it is sold as a nutritional product. it hasent cured me lol but i find it helpful in energy

Black seed inhibits nitric oxide production. One of the main physiological causes of impotence, or erectile dysfunction, is inability of the blood vessels in the penis to dilate enough to allow blood flow and engorgement. The most important chemical involved in this process is nitric oxide.

The in vitro effect of aqueous extract of Nigella sativa seeds on nitric oxide (NO) production by murine macrophages was studied. Murine peritoneal macrophages were pre-incubated with the extract and then activated with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharride. NO production was measured after 24 hours by spectrophotometry. The plant extract caused a dose-dependent decrease in NO production. Dialyzed preparation of the extract did not affect NO production. However, the boiled fraction of the extract resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of NO apparently comparable to that of the whole extract. These results indicate that the aqueous extract of N. sativa seeds exhibits an inhibitory effect on nitric oxide production by murine macrophages and the active component(s) is/are non-protein in nature. In view of the fact that nitric oxide is a pro-inflammatory mediator, this study validates the traditional use of the Nigella sativa seeds for the treatment of rheumatism.

I would say instead of oil use seeds only. any extract is not good. All the stories from saw palmetto are from it’s extract not from using ground berry.

Effect of Fixed Oil of Nigella Sativa on Male Fertility in Normal and Hyperlipidemic Rats

scialert.net/fulltext/?doi=ijp.2007.27.33

RESULTS

Lipid profile: Feeding of male rats a diet containing 1% Cholesterol significantly (p<0.01) increased total cholesterol, triglycerides (Table 1) and LDL (Table 2) levels in plasma. On the other hand, HDL level (Table 2) decreased significantly (p<0.01) as compared to those fed the basal diet.

Oral administration of oil of Nigella sativa to normal rats caused a significant decrease (p<0.01) in Cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL levels as compared to control -ve, 2 months post administration and a significant increase (p<0.01) in HDL level.

The treatment of hyperlipidemic rats with the oil led to a significant decrease (p<0.01) of previous parameters except HDL which elevated significantly at 1 and 2 months post treatment as compared to control +ve

Weights of sex organs: The weights of testes and seminal vesicles of hyperlipidemic control rats decreased significantly (p<0.01) 2 months post treatment (Table 3) as compared to normal control.

Normal rats given oil of N. sativa showed a significant (p<0.01) increase in seminal vesicle weight at all time intervals, while the weights of testes and epididymis didn’t change significantly. Hyperlipidemic rats treated with N. sativa oil showed increase in seminal vesicles (p<0.01) weight at all time intervals and in testes weight at 2 months post treatment as compared to control +ve.

Testosterone Level: Plasma testoterone level (Fig. 1) of hyperlipidemic control rats (control +ve) exhibited a significant decrease (p<0.01) at all time intervals as compared to normal control.

The hormone level elevated significantly (p<0.01) in normal or hyperlipidemic rats treated with oil of N. sativa as compared to corresponding control at any time interval.
