Dosing Nigella Sativa

The optimal dose of Nigella sativa for COVID-19 is not established; there have

been few focused studies on dosing. However, some studies have used doses ranging from 80 mg to 2000 mg per day, with no reported adverse effects.

Even Dr. Peter McCullough’s article on Nigella sativa says,

“Known since ancient times as a “remedy for everything but death,” an increasingly vast body of scientific research reveals that black seed is indeed one of nature’s most potent and versatile healing agents.

Protects against damage from heart attack: A thymoquinone extract from Nigella sativa has a protective effect against damage associated with an experimental heart attack.

Prevents brain pathology associated with Parkinson’s disease: A thymoquinone extract from Nigella sativa protects cultured neurons against alpha-SN-induced synaptic toxicity, a pathology observed in the brains of patients with Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. (14 other findings here)”

Additionally, thymoquinone, the extract of Black seed oil, has been studied for its ability to stimulate tissue growth and promote wound healing.

WHAT I REALLY THINK

So many people in other countries do not know that Nigella sativa can substitute for ivermectin, nor do they know that the following can substitute for hydroxychloroquine: doxycycline, green tea, and ECGC. This is important information to share, so thank you for helping others be fully informed.

It’s also pretty ridiculous, in my opinion, that so many people focused on “ivermectin” that the substitute of Nigella sativa has not made mainstream medical freedom news information.

So here we are, hoping that the word gets out! Thank you for sharing!
