It May Be Useful in Treating Asthma
Asthma is a respiratory condition that affects millions of people. It caused the airways to swell and constrict, making breathing very difficult. There is no cure but treatments help people cope with it.
Studies have shown [5] that black seed oil may help treat [6] asthma. This because thymoquinone present in black seed oil has anti-inflammatory properties and can help relax muscles in the airway.
More research is need on this topic, but a study in adults [7] with asthma found that consuming 500 milligrams of black seed oil capsules two times daily for four weeks significantly helped with controlling asthma.
