Black cumin, also known as Nigella sativa or black seed, is a medicinal plant shown to be beneficial for those with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Unlike some other treatment options, black cumin doesn’t seem to affect thyroid hormone directly; instead, the benefits are derived from its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Today, I’m sharing what the research shows about the benefits of black cumin, as well as what you need to know about dosage and other considerations for supplementation.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The positive effects of black cumin on TSH and TPO antibodies due to its antioxidant properties
- How black cumin can benefit those with autoimmune conditions
- The many health benefits of black seed and its protective effects on the liver and other organs
- Dosage considerations and toxicity
- The need for individualized supplement protocols
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
