Nigella Sativa/Black Cumin

Nigella Sativa, commonly known as Black Cumin or Kalonji, is a potent medicinal seed revered for centuries across traditional systems like Ayurveda, Unani, and Middle Eastern healing. Extracted from the flowering plant native to Southwest Asia, these jet-black seeds are known for their intense aroma, slightly bitter flavor, and strong therapeutic properties.

Packed with essential nutrients, Nigella Sativa is rich in thymoquinone, a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound that contributes to a wide range of health benefits including immune support, digestive aid, respiratory relief, and blood sugar balance. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and culinary industries.

Black Cumin seeds are also gaining popularity globally as a functional food ingredient and are used in cold-pressed oils, capsules, herbal teas, and spice blends. From holistic wellness products to immunity boosters, their versatility makes them a preferred choice for global buyers.

Our Nigella Sativa seeds are 100% natural, sun-dried, and processed under strict hygiene standards to preserve their nutritional potency. We offer customizable packaging and grades, including raw seeds, crushed form, and oil grade for bulk buyers and exporters.
