It Helps in Weight Loss
Black seed oil may help people lose weight faster. This has been confirmed in studies with obese people [12] and those with type 2 diabetes [13] or metabolic syndrome [14].
In a study lasting eight weeks [15], 90 women between ages 25 and 50 put on a low-calorie diet were split into two groups. One group was given a placebo treatment while the other received one gram of black seed oil per meal thrice a day. The results of the study show that the group given black seed oil lost significantly more weight and waist circumference than those on a placebo.
The results of studies with black seed oil on weight loss are promising, but more studies are needed to determine the viability of this oil as a weight-loss drug.
