Antifungal Remedies

Black seed oil has a long history as a folk remedy for fungal skin infections. Methanolic compounds, oleic acid and TQ are all bioactive compounds in black seed oil with strong antifungal effects, especially against a common fungus called Candida albicans.1‘A Review on Therapeutic Potential of Nigella Sativa: A Miracle Herb.’ PubMed, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29962349.

Several types of yeast and potentially pathogenic fungus species, known as dermatophytes, are sensitive to black seed oil. Dermatophytic fungi species can invade keratinized tissues, which includes human skin and nails.7H Shokri. ‘A Review on the Inhibitory Potential of Nigella Sativa against Pathogenic and Toxigenic Fungi.’ Avicenna Journal of Phytomedicine, U.S. National Library of Medicine, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27247919
