What is the purpose of Pranarom Capsules d'huile végétale de Nigelle Bio 60 capsules?
Historically speaking, black cumin has been used for thousands of years; it is even said that seeds were found in Tutankhamen's tomb. Mentioned by the Hippocratics (5th-4th centuries B.C.), the ancients saw black cumin as an aperitive, diuretic, attenuating and incisive, finding application in catarrhal pulmonary affections and to induce menstruation.
Among the Greeks, we find highly complex recipes designed to treat affections of the womb, and others still, which contain this melanthion, as it is called, a "name that evokes the color black(melas); the plant was perhaps so named because of the dark color of its seeds". Nigelle comes from the Latin nigellus, meaning "blackish", and earlier from niger, meaning "black".
Around 795, nigella was listed under the name gith in the Capitulary of Villis. The word gith seems to be of Arabic origin, which is not impossible given the southern origin of this plant, still very popular in Turkey, Greece and, further afield, in India, where it is called kalinji, and which Ayurvedic practitioners know very well, giving it stimulating, tonic and antidepressant properties, These properties, among others, are reminiscent of ancient Egyptian practices reported by Cazin in his Treatise, in which he explains that Egyptian women roasted black cumin seeds, which they then mixed with various other substances (cinnamon, ginger, musk, ambergris, sugar, hermodactyl...), to form a kind of preserve whose properties were to increase appetite and stoutness, as well as another sexual appetite.
In North Africa, cultivated black cumin is now part of the landscape, as it is in Crete, Egypt, Spain and France, where, if neglected, it reverts to its wild state on wasteland. However, the one that remains most common in France is above all the nigelle des champs, which Cazin said was very common in his day, as did Fournier a century later, locating it in and near cereal fields, on limestone soils throughout France (except for the siliceous areas of Brittany and Auvergne).
