Product Description

Life Extension extracts Egyptian Nigella sativa oil and concentrates the thymoquinone content to five times that of standard oil. The softgels are tasteless and filled under cGMP conditions.

What We Like

  • Thymoquinone standardization makes the effect more reproducible
  • Softgels avoid the intense taste of oil shots
  • Good availability via iHerb and European retailers
  • Complements antioxidant and immune-modulating protocols

What We’re Missing

  • No organic certification
  • Contains gelatin — not vegan

Usage Recommendation

2 softgels daily with a meal. If stomach-sensitive, split the dose and take with fat-containing foods.
