Thymocid(TM) organic Black Cumin seed Oil
Black seed, also known as black cumin, is a flowering plant belonging to the Ranunculaceae family. It is used in traditional medicine for the treatment of several conditions, including bronchitis, colic, fatigue, fever, headache, toothache, back pain, and infections. Most dietary supplements containing black seed market it as supporting the respiratory and digestive system, as well as improving immune health. Black seed oil is obtained from the seeds being cold-pressed. In regard to supplements, whole black seeds contain both the oil and other components such as fiber and proteins, while black seed oil is a concentrated source of the oil only. Both can be taken as supplements, but black seed oil contains larger amounts of active components, while whole seeds can provide additional nutrients and fiber.

General Statements |
- Foundation for Longer Life
- Modulates key regulators of inflammation
- As we age, a balanced immune and inflammatory response becomes critical to guarding our health.65-69 Research has shown Black Cumin Seed Oil to be particularly effective.70-78
Scientists have determined that black cumin seeds contain a broad spectrum of active compounds.70 Combined, these compounds provide powerful and wide-ranging immune support and promote healthy inflammatory response.70,71
A number of biological factors contribute to the body’s normal inflammatory activity, including cell-signaling chemicals and hormone-like messengers.77,78 In a series of scientific studies, Black Cumin Seed Oil has been shown to support the normal effectiveness of these inflammatory factors.70,71
Also, an aging, healthy immune system needs to orchestrate the activity of macrophages and helper T-cells. Black Cumin Seed Oil was also shown to support the optimal function of this vitally important defensive activity.79-81
By acting on both immune factors and inflammatory factors, Black Cumin Seed Oil supports a healthy immune system — which is increasingly important as we age — and facilitates a healthy inflammatory response!
