Thymoquinone

Thymoquinone production begins with the raw material, which is commonly a black seed from the Nigella sativa plant. The seeds are then crushed and processed to remove any contaminants. The refined filtration technique helps to cleanse and boost the quality of thymoquinone. Next, the thymoquinone is extracted with ethyl alcohol. This procedure helps to preserve the beneficial chemicals found in thymoquinone. Finally, the thymoquinone is purified using sophisticated filtering. This procedure assures that the thymoquinone has the maximum quality and purity.

What are the effects of thymoquinone?

Nigella Sativa is mainly distributed in Yunnan and Xinjiang, China. Its seeds have been used as both medicine and food for more than 2,000 years and can be used to treat a variety of diseases, such as skin diseases, conjunctivitis, diabetes, hypertension, bronchitis, etc.

In recent years, more and more studies have found that black cumin seeds and their active ingredient thymoquinone have antimicrobial effects.
Studies have shown that black cumin seed extract has inhibitory effects on a variety of pathogens, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
This shows that black cumin seeds and their active ingredient thymoquinone can be used as anti-dermatophyte drug ingredients and can be used to treat fungal skin infections.
Cell experiments have also found that thymoquinone can inhibit the expression of Epstein-Barr virus genes.
