Blacnogenol This is a very special anti-oxidant formula. What are anti-oxidants? Simply put they are the good scavengers roaming our bodies searching for free radicals also known as toxins. Once found these anti-oxidants try to neutralize and eliminate the toxic substances, toxins may come from the environment, food supplies and also waste from our own cells. These toxins destroy cells causing a large variety of problems such as suppressed immune disorders and allergies.

The bark of the pine trees contain very special bioflavonoid called proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins are considered to be one of the most potent anti-oxidants available. Studies have shown these bioflavonoid to have stronger anti-oxidants properties than both vitamin E and vitamin C. Anti-oxidants like pine bark work synergistically with many substances found in our body. These special bioflavonoid work well with many different herbs especially immune enhancing ones such as black seed. Black seed has many properties that nourish the immune system in turn supporting the whole body.

Title: Fight Allergy with Grape Seed/Pine Bark Extracts & Black Seed
Author: Agnes Bellegris

Spring rejuvenates and inspires us with hopes of warm weather, laughter and outdoor fun. However, this perfect scenario is not one that is realistic for people who suffer from plant/pollen allergies - spring brings discomfort that can last until fall. Appropriate anti-oxidant combination help alleviate allergy misery naturally with no uncomfortable allergy needles and no anti-histamine tablets that dry you out.

Here is a simple science lesson that can help you balance your system. Molecules in our bodies have a combination of protons and electrons that need to remain balanced. When electrons are removed or oxidized from the molecular structure by free radicals (oxidizing agents), found in our system and in our environment, the molecular structure is de-stabilized. Cells are destroyed and enzyme formation is altered, thus creating negative effects like allergies and colds. Anti-oxidants block free radicals from doing this damage. They protect natural enzymes and allow proper functioning. We should ensure that our bodies contain enough anti-oxidant to inhibit free radicals that cause the immune system to over react to substances such as dust and pollen.

Bioflavonoid, commonly found in citrus fruit and vegetables, are powerful carriers of anti-oxidants but here is another extremely effective bioflavonoid present in pine tree bark or grape seed extract called proanthocyanidins. Tests indicate it to be 50 times more effective than Vitamin E and 20 times more than Vitamin C, it serves as an excellent anti-inflammatory, anti-histamine, anti-allergen and anti-haemorrhage. Anti-oxidant combinations and immunity boosting substances found in plants and herbs work together creating maximum body functioning. The ultimate combination for the prevention of seasonal allergies consists of proanthocyanidins and a herb called black seed.

Black seed has been used for centuries to treat arthritis, bronchial asthma, parasitic infections, gastrointestinal ailments, improve liver, kidney and circulatory system functioning and increase resistance to diseases. The active ingredient in black seed is Nigellone, which not only helps prevent histamine-induced broncho spasm, it also serves as an anti-tumour agent. Allergic reactions are caused by an impaired immune system and the usual medications do not cure the cause only the symptoms. The combination of proanthocyanidins from pine bark or grape seed extract and black seed in capsule form, available at health food stores, is excellent for strengthening the immune system and minimizing allergic reactions. These natural substances work together to free the body of oxidizing agents and increase the immune systems’ ability to ward off unwanted bacterial agents.

The result is a decrease in allergic reactions and a reduced risk of chronic illness. Spring cleaning must begin from within. Take a deep breath, enjoy the fresh Air and have an allergy-free summer.

Black seed: why it should be included in your daily diet?

Author: Betty Norton

Many wonderful helping plants surfaced when the cultures of our world started to share trade and teach their herbal medicines to each other. One such plant was Nigella Sativa commonly known as black seed. This mild aromatic herb is indigenous to the Middle East where it has been used as a traditional remedy for over 2000 years. It was used so extensively that it became known as the seed of blessing “Habbatul Barakah”.

EARLY APPLICATIONS
In the 13th century, the Arabic physician Ibn Kaym claimed black seed could be used for over 50 ailments such as Bronchial Asthma, Bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory tract. Also, inflammation reduction, Arthritis relief, correction of digestive disorders, constipation relief, fighting parasitic infestations, detoxification and strengthening of the liver, increased energy and general good health are among the many benefits from using black seed.

SCIENTIFIC STUDIES
At the 71st annual meeting of the federation of American societies for experimental biology, a report was issued supporting some of the medicinal claims of Black seed. Some medicinal response may be attributed to the increase of immune enhancing T cells. This may support the black seed’s role in balancing and strengthening the immune system.

One of the active ingredients found in black seed is called Nigellone. This ingredient has shown the ability to produce an anti-histamine response in the body. Studies have shown the benefits of this anti-histamine response in children and adults with bronchial asthma. Unlike most bronchial asthma medicine, Nigellone produced no harmful side effects. A study conducted by the Amala cancer research center in Amala Nagar in India showed evidence that Black seed is a potent antitumor agent. This study also showed that a long chain fatty acid found in Black seed may be the active component.

THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
Black seed contains many active compounds as well as 15 amino acid proteins, carbohydrates, alkaloids, Saponins, crude fibre, calcium, iron, sodium and potassium. Black seed also contains 84% fatty acids including linoleic, linolenic and oleic forms plus very special volatile oils. These volatile oils contain important compounds that are antibacterial and antifungal. The antibacterial properties help inhibit the growth of several species of bacteria as well as Candida. It is also suggested that this plant can be helpful in preventing dental plaque.

Black seed can also be combined with other substances to increase certain medicinal responses. Black seed contains 23 different plant sterols. These sterols can fit onto the hormone receptors in the human body. This ability to fit onto the receptor sites may be useful in relieving prostate inflammation and unpleasant menopausal symptoms.

The seed is also known as a Galactogouge. This means it helps to increase the flow of milk in lactating women. Black seed is a herb from the middle east. It supports our bodies in so many different ways. It is non habit forming and safe. Black seed works well with many different herbs and natural substances. Black Seed and Black Seed & Combinations in capsule form are available at your local health food store.
