      Dear this seed is the cure of every health issues except death. Its a promise. People are using this seed since last 2000 years but mostly our doctors are blind and don’t know what they are missing in new age. No side effects its all win win with your health. Take my words for it. Its very easy to find from any indian or Pakistani grocery stores. Just ask them for Kalongi seeds or the kalongi oil. Trust me its very effective and very helpful. No age restriction for the use of it. But take 5 to 10 seeds twice a day give it a week and see the results.

      It’s an old-school treatment; take a handful of kalonji seeds, and heat it well with mustard oil. Once the oil is smoking, take it off the flame and cool it down for a bit. The oil is ready when you can dip the tip of a finger into the oil without feeling uncomfortable. Now use this oil to massage the inflamed joint.

      Hey @ Starshine, if you wanna stop taking the thyroid medicine, you could try ayurvedic or homeopathic treatment. In allopathy they only give you the medicine which is nothing but for hormone replacement. However, there has been positive but slow results when you take homeopathy or Ayurvedic medicines. I’m particularly talking only about Hypothyroidism and nothing else. Hope you recover soon. Power to you!

        Kalonji is good for so many health issues. There is also another product in the market(which you could make yourself , if you wish). It consists of Apple cider vinegar, Garlic, Ginger, Lemon and Honey. There is a similar product with Turmeric juice included. This concoction is good for heart issues and a host of other medical conditions. As always, let your doctor know if you plan to include these supplements along with your prescribed medicines. Some doctors do not want to be bothered with it as it would mean spending more time with each patient or they are afraid of any interactions with their medicines. A holistic MD would be a good idea. Check out this product on the internet and decide for yourself.

        There are a few testimonials on the internet regarding improvement in kidney function after using BETA GLUCAN and another one where a daily consumption of a few strands of saffron in a little warm milk. I think both are harmless and it might help.

      Hello Raju,

      Kalonji seeds will not have any such side effects. But at the same time if you feel suspicious about it, then discontinue for a while and check for the same symptoms. If the pain is gone then you might be allergic to seeds. And if still pain is there that means something else is responsible for that pain. Investigate

      Mr Syed,

      Kalonji seeds can be taken 5gms/day. Cinnamon 1-2g/day will have very good results on your sugar control. Eat more of fatty fish (not fried form), Lean chicken meat, egg whites. (Do not prefer eating red meat and egg yolks). Eat minimum quantity of processed foods as they are higher in preservatives and invisible salt present in them may be in form of soda bi carb or baking powder etc. Minimize you salt intake. Add freshly cut lemon where ever you feel you can. Vit c in lemons will help to increase the activity of insulin. Extra virgin Olive oil- 5gms/day can be used. Amla powder will not be so beneficial as vit c in powder is in very negligible amount. You can take methi seeds empty stomach ( soaked overnight).

      Hi Reshma,
      Intead of taking kalonji seeeds, take Yakult available in market. Take 1 bottle every day for 15 days and then continue alternate days. Do not eat outside food. Drink only boiled water.

            I am sorry. I am not so aware of it’s availability in Pakistan. By that time you can eat fresh home made curds.

            Hi Neha,
            The mix of olive oil (1 tsp) and Kalonji oil (1/2 tsp) rubs on the face, left it for an hour and wash it with shampoo. Continue it for a week. This is one of the fine beauty tips for face.
            Which shampoo here?
            Another, is it true that kalonji oil should not be taken for a longer period?
