Centuries Of Traditional Use
Does any of this sound like you?
Black seed has been part of daily routines across the Middle East, South Asia and North Africa for centuries. Tap everything that sounds familiar.
Everything You Need To Know
One seed. Cold-pressed. Two softgels a day.
Supports Your Immune System
Black seed (Nigella sativa) is traditionally used to support the immune system and general good health. Two softgels a day, taken with a meal, fit easily into a daily routine.
Part Of Your Skin And Hair Routine
Black seed oil has a long tradition in skin and hair care across the Middle East and South Asia. It is a natural source of essential fatty acids, and some of our reviewers mention their hair and nails feeling stronger.
Everyday Energy
Supports everyday energy and helps relieve general tiredness, as part of a balanced diet, regular meals and enough sleep.
Sealed In A Softgel
The oil is cold-pressed from the seed and sealed inside a softgel, away from air and light until you take it. No spoon, no mess and no bitter oil taste.
Cold-Pressed Oil, Not Powder, Not Oxidized Liquid
Not all black seed is equal. Powder capsules most brands sell are mostly ground seed husk with barely any active oil left. Liquid bottles oxidize the moment they hit air and sunlight, destroying the thymoquinone you paid for. Cold-pressed oil sealed inside a softgel protects the active compound.

How to Use Black Seed Oil
Take 2 softgels daily, with food
Black seed oil is fat-soluble. Taking it with a meal that has healthy fat (eggs, avocado, olive oil, nuts) noticeably improves absorption.
Stick with it for at least 4 weeks
Black seed oil is meant to be a daily habit, not a one-off. Take it every day for at least 4 weeks before you decide how it suits you.
Keep to 2 softgels a day
Do not take more than 2 softgels a day unless a healthcare professional advises it. If you are pregnant or nursing, or take blood pressure or blood-thinning medicine, check with your doctor first.
Let's be honest
You've tried black seed before. Nothing happened.
A bottle of bitter liquid from the halal store. Capsules from a mall kiosk. A gummy that promised a lot and delivered sugar. You took it for a week, felt nothing, and forgot about it. A lot of black seed on shelves is ground powder, or oil that has sat open to air and light. That is not the same as fresh cold-pressed oil.
Without it
A bitter bottle at the back of the cupboard.
You bought loose black seed oil, took a spoonful twice, and the taste put you off. The bottle has been sitting open ever since.
With Black Seed Oil
Two softgels with breakfast.
No spoon, no bitter taste, no mess. A daily habit that is easy to keep going.
Without it
Not sure how much you are getting.
Powder capsules and unlabelled oils rarely tell you how much oil is in a serving. You end up guessing every day.
With Black Seed Oil
1,000mg in every serving.
Two softgels give you 1,000mg of cold-pressed black seed oil. You know exactly what you are taking each day.
Without it
Running out halfway through the month.
Small bottles run out fast, and the habit breaks every time you have to reorder.
With Black Seed Oil
60 servings in one bottle.
120 softgels at 2 a day lasts a full 60 days. One bottle covers two months of your routine.
The uncomfortable truth
Why not all black seed bottles are equal
Ground seed powder, not oil
Most cheap capsules are filled with ground seed husk, barely any active oil, almost no thymoquinone. It's a fiber capsule dressed up as a supplement. Ours is cold-pressed oil extracted directly from the seed, concentrated, and sealed inside a softgel.
Liquid bottles oxidize, TQ dies
Liquid oil exposed to light, heat, and air begins oxidizing the moment the seal breaks, and thymoquinone is one of the first compounds destroyed. That bitter old-bottle taste is literally the active ingredient dying. A sealed softgel locks it in.
Under-dosing and one-week patience
Many human studies on black seed oil used around 1,000mg per day for 6 to 12 weeks. A 500mg capsule taken for 10 days is a very different routine. We put 1,000mg in each serving and suggest taking it daily for at least 4 weeks.
One seed. In a form that is easy to take daily.
1,000mg cold-pressed Nigella sativa oil per serving. Thymoquinone preserved. Halal certified. Third-party lab tested.

Got Questions?
Frequently asked questions
Three things. First, it's actual cold-pressed oil from Nigella sativa seeds, not ground seed powder stuffed into a capsule. Second, it's sealed inside a softgel, so thymoquinone (the active compound) isn't oxidizing in an open liquid bottle. Third, it's dosed at 1,000mg per serving, the level human trials actually used. Cheap bottles miss all three.
Everyone is different, and black seed oil is a daily wellness supplement, not a quick fix. We suggest taking 2 softgels a day for at least 4 weeks before you judge it. Direct orders are covered by our 60-day satisfaction guarantee.
Black seed oil is very well tolerated in healthy adults. A small number of people experience mild stomach upset if they take it on a completely empty stomach. Taking it with food solves this. If you're on blood-thinning, blood-pressure, or diabetes medication, speak with your doctor first.
Human studies have commonly used 1,000 to 2,000mg a day for 8 to 12 weeks, and our serving is 1,000mg, at the lower end of that range. Black seed also has a long history of traditional use as a food. If you plan to take it long term, are pregnant or nursing, or take any medication, check with your doctor first.
Take 2 softgels once a day with a meal that contains some fat (it's a fat-soluble oil, so this improves absorption). Breakfast or lunch is ideal. Do not take more than 2 softgels a day unless a healthcare professional advises it.
Yes, halal certified. It also stacks cleanly with almost anything, our most common pairings are Magnesium Glycinate (sleep and calm), Ashwagandha (stress and energy), and Psyllium Husk (fibre and digestion). Take them with the same meal for simplicity.

I'm so happy with this purchase from Shopee! The item arrived surprisingly fast, just two days after ordering. It was really well-packaged, bubble-wrapped securely, so it arrived in perfect condition. The product itself works exactly as advertised, and the quality is excellent for the price. I was a bit hesitant at first, but it has exceeded my expectations. The seller was also responsive to my questions before I bought it. Overall, this was a fantastic deal and a super smooth transaction. I'll definitely be buying from this shop again. Highly recommended! 10/10.
Sustainability is no longer a choice; it is a fundamental shift in how we inhabit the planet. At its core, it requires balancing our current needs with the well-being of future generations by protecting natural resources. This involves moving toward a circular economy�reducing waste, repurposing materials, and prioritizing renewable energy over fossil fuels.
On an individual level, small changes like conscious consumption and reducing plastic use create a collective impact. However, true progress depends on systemic change, where corporations and governments prioritize ecological health over short-term profit. By respecting our planet's limits, we can build a resilient, thriving world.
