This SEED Cure For All Diseases Except Death – Really?

00:00 INTRODUCTION
The Nigella Sativa, more commonly known as black seed, it is a well-known natural spice, that has been popularized worldwide for its medicinal and culinary uses. It is native to southern Europe, North Africa, and Southwest Asia, but is currently consumed in most of the world.

Regarding this ingredient, there are those who wonder if it is true that it has “healing powers”. Since it has been used in traditional medicine, many myths about its health effects have spread. Is it as good as they say? Can it actually be curative? Today we want to clarify it.

00:30 Does the black seed have healing powers?
The properties of the black seed have been studied extensively, to the point of confirming many of its beneficial effects on health. However, claiming that it has “healing powers” is wrong. While its components can help improve various health problems, by itself it does not cure diseases.

In fact, it is not considered a first-line treatment for health problems, nor is it a substitute for therapeutic measures by doctors. Simply, included in the regular diet, in prudent amounts, it turns out to be a good adjunct to promote well-being.

01:01 Properties of the black seed:
As we already mentioned, black seed has been the focus of various investigations and trials. Therefore, as a study published in the Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine supports, consuming it in a balanced way helps improve health.
Among the main healing substances found in the seed is thymoquinone, the main bioactive component of essential oil.
They also include alphahenderin, a water-soluble substance that, as shown in a study in the African Journal of Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicines, has anticancer activity.
Remember that carcinogenic activity is not synonymous with the fact that it can cure cancer or something like that. Simply, in the studies carried out, it contributed to inhibit the growth of malignant cells. However, more studies are needed to make claims.
Regarding its composition, in addition to its protein, fat, carbohydrate and fiber content, studies show that black seeds contain a good amount of various vitamins and minerals: such as, potassium, zinc or iron, among others.
Similarly, these seeds contain unsaturated acids, mainly linoleic acid (50 to 60%), oleic acid (20%). It also has saturated fatty acids to a lesser extent (30% or less).
Within the spectrum of its pharmacological actions, information disclosed in the Journal of Pharmacopuncture indicates that it includes:
Antidiabetic,
Antimicrobial,
Anti-inflammatory,
Antispasmodic,
Bronchodilators,
Hepatoprotective,
Gastroprotective.

02:32 How can it be used?
The black seed can be used in various presentations. Some prefer it macerated or powdered, but it is also available in oil, whole seeds, and supplements. In all cases it is better to consult your doctor before taking it regularly. In its natural state, it should be included in food and drink.

02:50 Precautions:
As you may have noticed, the black seed has interesting nutritional and medical potential. However, it is important to bear in mind that, just as its use and consumption attracts enormous benefits, it can also have some side effects and contraindications.
Its consumption is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation.
It can cause allergic and skin reactions in some people. If any symptoms such as swelling, hives, dizziness or nausea are observed, its use should be discontinued.
If you are under any drug treatment, it is important to consult your doctor before taking black seed. This is because it could decrease its action or cause unwanted interactions.
In some people, contact with the black seed causes a rash and itchy skin reaction. If this is your case, rinse with plenty of water and avoid using it.
It should be avoided in case of hypotension, as it tends to lower blood pressure even more.
In conclusion, it is not in vain that the black seed is considered an ally for our health. However, it must be remembered that excess of any substance is generally harmful. If in doubt, we must consult the doctor.

Thank you for watching the video.

I hope this information may give certain information about black seed and its healing properties. Was this information helpful and What do you think about this video? Let us know in the comment section.

Until then take care and we will meet you with another informative video.

Hiccups cure. This video is on treatment, cures and how to stop and get rid of hiccups fast, as well as what are hiccups.

A hiccup is an automatic action (a reflex) that the body can’t control. During a hiccup your diaphragm (the muscle under your lungs that helps you breathe) contracts. Immediately after this the top of your windpipe (your glottis) closes, making the typical ‘hic’ sound.

I hope my tips help you and good luck! By the way maybe we can do our own little science experiment and see which remedy works best, so please leave a comment below and let me know which one works for you. I will then tally the results up and leave a pinned comment, this may be useful for everyone in the future.

HICCUPS SYMPTOMS:
Everyone has had hiccups, and knows exactly what they are and what they feel like. They affect women and men equally, although persistent hiccups occur much more commonly in men. They happen mainly in the evening.

There is an important difference between short bouts of hiccups and persistent hiccups (lasting longer than 48 hours). Persistent hiccups are more likely to be linked to an underlying illness and you may need medical tests.

CAUSES OF SHORT BOUT HICCUPS:
Most people have bouts of hiccups from time to time. In most cases they start for no apparent reason, last a short while and then stop. Sometimes they are due to:

• Sudden excitement or emotional stress.
• A temporary swollen stomach caused by overeating or eating too fast, drinking fizzy drinks, or swallowing air.
• A sudden change in temperature (very hot or cold food or drinks, a cold shower, etc).
• Alcohol.
• Excess smoking.

CAUSES OF PERSISTENT HICCUPS:
Persistent hiccups are rare. In some cases, persistent hiccups are caused by an underlying disease. Over 100 diseases have been reported to cause hiccups. Some are common, such as acid reflux, and some are rare. You would normally have other symptoms apart from the hiccups.

In some cases of persistent hiccups there is no apparent cause. However, the persistent hiccups can become exhausting and distressing. Examples of conditions which can cause persistent hiccups can be found at the following link:
https://patient.info/health/hiccups-hiccoughs

Please see your doctor if you have persistent hiccups (lasting longer than 48 hours), as medical tests and investigations may be required.

HICCUP REMEDIES:
There are many popular remedies that are said to stop a short bout of hiccups but they are based on people’s individual experiences. It is not clear how effective they are, as they have not been tested by research trials. They include the following:

•Using a technique called the Valsalva manoeuvre. The way to do this is to take a deep breath in, then keep the air inside you while pushing with your muscles as if to force the air out. This is like pushing in childbirth or straining on the toilet.
• Remedy from Dr Eric Voigt and apparently it has a high success rate. Drink water from the opposite side so tilt your head down and drink the water this way. Because of the way the abdomen contracts it may stop hiccups.
• Swallowing granulated sugar.
• Sipping iced water.
• Biting on a lemon or tasting vinegar.
• Pulling on the tongue.
• Breathing- Either hold your breath for a short time, breath fast or breathe into a paper bag.
• Compress the diaphragm by either pulling the knees up to the chest or leaning forward.
• Swallow water while closing the nose.
• Ask someone to scare you.
