Tired of not having good treatment options available for Hashimoto’s? If so, I have some good news for you.

Outside of traditional treatments like thyroid medication, there are some incredibly powerful natural options that have been shown in some research studies to help.

One of the most potent is known as nigella sativa.

I’m going to use nigella sativa and black seed oil almost interchangeably in this video but here’s the difference:

Nigella sativa is the plant that produces black seeds and black seeds can be cold pressed to produce black seed oil.

The active ingredients in nigella sativa can be found in both black seeds and black seed oil so it’s very likely that taking any of these 3 may provide benefits.

One study that looked at nigella sativa found the following:

1. It had a pro-thyroid benefit and acted to help reduce TSH levels and increase free thyroid hormone levels.

2. It had a thyroid-antibody-reducing benefit and resulted in a decrease in TPO antibodies by almost 50%.

3. It may provide an anti-thyroid cancer benefit by reducing VEGF levels.

These results are incredible and should perk the interest of just about every patient with Hashimoto’s.

The study referenced here used nigella sativa at 2 grams per day but I think black seed oil can provide superior benefits.
