May Promote Wound Healing
The black seed oil has a compound known to stimulate tissue growth and promote wound healing. Thanks to its compound thymoquinone, many believe that using black seed oil can help wound heal faster. Some research in animals has also found that using black seed oil may help treat burns, excisions, and even diabetic wounds.
Thymoquinone is the key to these improvements as it has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. One animal study found that using black seed oil enhanced wound healing in rats. It is compared to the one they have on a separate test with a different protocol.
A study conducted by Iranian researchers found that Nigella Sativa was found as effective as the skin cream betamethasone. As a result, it boosts the quality of life and decreases the severity issues of people with skin issues. However, more studies are being conducted every day on black seed oil to understand whether it is a long-term solution or not.
