I grind these and sprinkle them on food (like a spice). To me they taste a little peppery but not everyone agrees. According to a paper published at PubMed Black Cumin Seed is an effective antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, immunomodulatory, bronchodilatory, antihistaminic, antitussive, antipyretic and analgesic activities. It sounds too good not to have on hand.

I was interested in trying black seed tea after reading a few interesting articles about the health benefits. I found drinking this tea has alleviated my menstrual pains, and in general helps with my blood sugar. I now enjoy this black seed for tea regularly. The results of drinking it make me think it is good quality though I do not have anything else to compare it to.

These organic black cumin seeds are exactly as described. They are high quality, taste delicious (when prepared correctly), are easy to use, and the bag is really large. I have been taking one serving daily, and I am impressed. I love that the only ingredient in the package is the organic black cumin seeds, no fillers, nothing else. I will definitely be buying these again!

Great value and high quality. I use them in conjunction with a healthy diet. 1/4tsp serving at a time so this size package will last a while. I add them to smoothies and savory recipes. They taste slightly peppery. I originally bought them for weight loss but it seems the benefits are endless!

Product was of excellent quality - Nothing in this but the ingredient you paid for- Mild taste not bitter- I warm mine on low heat then grind it- I sprinkle this on yogurt or use this in a smoothie- Best size i've found for the cost- Package is thick walled and resealable so it ships well-

Black cumin seeds are really good for health for many reasons, including inflammation, reducing oxidative stress, improves lipid and blood sugar levels ( I know this sounds technical but I consulted a nutritionist). I put them in my superfood smoothies and they blend well with the other ingredients -- they have no taste so you can blend them with several things.

Raw cumin seeds can be used to make black seed oil. Chew on a very small amount to get nutritional benefits. Not too much or it will leave your throat with a burning sensation. I use the homemade cumin oil for my hair.

These organic Black Cumin Seeds seem fresh and are just fine. They are a bit small and seem on the dry side. They are not as good as those I have purchased at Mountain Rose Herbs in the past, but the price point is good when you factor in iHerb's free shipping.

I really like Kevala organic Black Cumin Seeds. Raw not toasted. Cost a little bit more than others but worth it. I share with family and friends who incorporate them into their diets. It is noted for it's appetite suppression.

I grind the seeds in a coffee grinder or Pepper Mill. They make a nice seasoning with a mild pepper flavor that is super nutritional!
