Detailed Description:
In the absence of proven antiviral therapy or specific vaccination against COVID-19, Nigella seed oil is suggested as a potential supplement due to its known immunostimulatory and antiviral activities in previous published studies.
Nigella (known as black seed) in the Latin language or "Habatulbarakah" in the Arabic language, is a food supplement and a medicinal plant well known in Arab and Islamic culture. It is used as a food spice and it has a lot of medical claims that come from different historical backgrounds. Nigella seeds contain several active compounds that have been isolated, identified and reported, the most important being thymoquinone.
