I can get more today .. how many kilos you want. I just found ten kilos

and I am shipping it to Jim with 100 kilos of Oregano and 50 kilos of

Anise next week.

Sounds like overkill to me ... ;-p

 

Yea .. I wrote on the alleged claim of Mohammed said that - long ago.

Pioneers only as far as the USA goes .. it has a 1,600 + year history of

use in this part of the world .. the seeds and later the oil.

There are over 20 species in the genus Nigella - but Nigella sativa is a

species unto itself and as far as I have been able to understand (from

a botanical book that takes 3 men and a boy to carry) there are no

sub-species of Nigella sativa. Even Rosmarinus officinalis - which has

chemotypes - has only one type of Cineole type regardless of whether it

is grown in Tunisia, Turkey, Greece or wherever.

 

Turkey is a major producer of Nigella sativa and one of the major

suppliers to the Arab world.

 

Y'all keep smiling, Butch :-) http://www.AV-AT.com

Dear Butch,

Thank you for clarifying the two " Black Cumins " and the data on Nigella

Sativa is very much appreciated. One of those cases where there are two

herbs of the same colloquial name...

In the excerpt below - they are referring to the essential oil? Not a

tincture? I may have missed a post or two with the explanation....could you

clarify???..............Herbally Yours Penny
