This is a plant from the ranunculaceae family, not to be confused with the common cumin found in the spice rack. A daily dose of two softgels provides 1000 mg of oil, supplemented with natural vitamin E. With 420 softgels per bottle, taking two per day gives you a supply for about half a year, divided into a morning and evening dose. Precisely for this reason, many people deliberately choose the capsule form over a bottle of pure oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat lies behind the name Nigella sativa\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNigella sativa is also known as black seed oil, and the small black seeds have been used for generations in the kitchens of countries including Egypt, Turkey, and India. The oil itself consists largely of unsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid that occurs naturally in numerous plant oils. In addition, Nigella sativa oil contains a range of smaller components that together determine the seeds' typical, slightly spicy aroma. However, in the Netherlands and the rest of the EU, we may only mention health claims that are officially listed in the European claims database. At this moment, there is no approved claim for Nigella sativa oil listed there, so we mainly describe its composition and origin here, not what it would do for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThymoquinone, a plant substance in the seeds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack seed oil owes part of its fame to thymoquinone, a plant substance that occurs naturally in the seeds of Nigella sativa. Thymoquinone also gives the oil part of its characteristic, slightly bitter aroma and taste. The amount of thymoquinone in a seed depends on where and how the plant was grown, and on the way the oil is subsequently extracted. Pure black seed oil has a pronounced, sharp taste. In a softgel, you taste none of that. You simply swallow the capsule with a glass of water, without having to measure out a spoonful or dealing with an aftertaste. This makes the capsule form primarily a matter of convenience for those who want to give the oil a regular place in their day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin E from soybeans, supplemented for a reason\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eD-alpha-tocopherol has been added to the formula, a natural form of vitamin E that is extracted from non-genetically modified soybeans. Each daily dose of two softgels contains 10 mg. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble substance, which explains why it fits well in an oil formula like this one: it dissolves in the same fat phase as the black seed oil itself, instead of in an aqueous solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCold-pressed and packaged in a softgel capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCold-pressing means that the seeds are mechanically pressed without adding heat. As a result, the oil does not come into contact with high temperatures during production, which, according to the manufacturer, benefits the oil's composition. That oil is then placed directly into a softgel capsule, also known as a softgel. A softgel consists of a shell with a liquid or oil-based filling, in contrast to a hard capsule that usually contains powder. Please note: the capsule shell of this product is made of beef gelatin. This means that this product is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians, unlike capsules based on plant-based hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Due to the vitamin E from soy, the product also contains soy, something to take into account in case of an allergy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bottle with 420 softgels provides about 210 daily doses when taking two per day. Vit4ever has every batch independently tested for quality. It is best to store the softgels in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, so that the oil is exposed to air and heat as little as possible. Black seed oil in capsule form thus remains a particularly practical choice: no bottle, no measuring spoon, just a regular place in your daily routine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vit4ever","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43622960857308,"sku":"vit4-199","price":24.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vit4ever-zwarte-komijn-olie-420-capsules-vit4ever-1.jpg?v=1793623860","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/zwarte-komijn-olie-420-capsules-vit4ever","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
