Black seed oil may reduce fasting blood sugar and HbA1c levels and increase insulin production. Thymoquinone is a powerful antioxidant and may protect the pancreatic islets and beta cells responsible for insulin production.¹‘A Review on Therapeutic Potential of Nigella Sativa: A Miracle Herb.’ PubMed, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29962349.
