Black seed oil is obtained by cold pressing the best black seeds. It is renowned in many cultures for its amazing benefits. Historically, the oil extracted from black seeds was known as "pharaoh's oil" because it was chosen as a treatment for various diseases and infections. In the sixth century, the prophet Muhammad is said to have stated, "Observe the use of the black seed, for it is the cure for all diseases except death."

Black cumin, a legendary oriental plant, has been used to treat a variety of ailments. The history of the healing properties of black seed oil spans centuries.

A well-known archaeologist, Howard Carter, discovered an unknown black oil in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun. It was later identified as "black cumin oil." This finding suggests that the ancient Egyptians were aware of black seeds and used them 3,000 years ago. The discovery of this oil among the buried treasures of the king undoubtedly highlights its importance at the time. Queen Nefertiti of Egypt knew about the amazing effects of this oil on the skin and used it to preserve her beauty and youth.

Black seed oil (also known as black cumin oil, Nigella Sativa) is used to enhance nutrition in cosmetics and folk medicine. It has a bitter, spicy, slightly cumin-like taste and is used to enrich the diet (about 1 teaspoon per day). In cosmetics, it is used for the care of sensitive, irritated, itchy, dry, cracked, and scaly skin.

Black cumin grows in the Mediterranean, northern Africa, Morocco, Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula.

Nigella Sativa has many names. In Hindi, it is known as Kalonji, in Arabic as Habbat Al Baraka ("blessed seed"), and it is also referred to as flowering fennel (black caraway), nutmeg flower (blackcurrant), and Roman coriander (Italian coriander). In America, it is called chernushka, a name apparently brought by Russian emigrants. These various names can cause confusion.

The Nigella plant itself is botanically unrelated to sesame, fennel, cumin, or onion. The most common name, black cumin nigella, comes from the similarity of the leaves (thin, carved, like fennel) and the shape and color of the seeds: small, black, and with a pungent taste. The seeds are a very popular spice in the East and a well-regarded medicine in the Arab world, where it is written in the Qur'an: "Black cumin is a cure for all diseases except death." While in European folk medicine, black seeds are modestly used for stomach ailments and as a bile stimulant, in the East, black cumin seed oil is used for almost all ailments.
