Per 2 capsule serving: Organic Black Seed Oil 1,440mg.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of the reach of young children. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for children. Consult your doctor before use if you take blood-thinning medication, blood pressure medication, diabetes medication or sedatives, if you have low blood pressure, low blood sugar, a bleeding disorder or a kidney or liver condition, or if you are due to have surgery. Avoid if you are allergic to Nigella sativa or plants in the buttercup (Ranunculaceae) family.
Take 2 capsules daily with water, preferably with a meal. Do not exceed the recommended daily intake.
Tiny, jet-black and gently peppery, the seeds of Nigella sativa have been treasured across the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia for thousands of years. Known by many names, including black cumin, kalonji and black caraway, they are pressed to make a rich, aromatic oil. Alpha01 Organic Black Seed Oil 1440mg Capsules capture that oil in a convenient vegan capsule, so you can enjoy it without the strong, bitter taste.
Alpha01 uses virgin, organic black seed oil that has been cold-pressed from the seeds and left unrefined. Cold-pressing avoids high heat and chemical solvents, helping the oil retain its natural unsaturated fatty acids and characteristic compounds. The oil is standardised to 2% thymoquinone, one of the best-known naturally occurring constituents of Nigella sativa seed oil.
Each two-capsule serving provides 1,440mg of organic black seed oil, with around 720mg in every capsule. Liquid black seed oil has a strong, pungent flavour that many people find hard to enjoy straight from a spoon. Capsules remove that issue completely, with no aftertaste, no measuring and no oily spills.
Many oil supplements are sealed in gelatine softgels, but these capsules use a hypromellose shell, which is plant-derived, so the product is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The ingredient list is as short as it gets: organic black seed oil and the capsule shell. There are no fillers, artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.
Black seed oil is naturally rich in unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid, and oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats in the diet contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels, which is an authorised health claim relating to dietary fats.
Alpha01 is a UK brand making its supplements in the EU to GMP food safety standards using non-GMO ingredients. Each batch is tested for heavy metals and microbial contaminants. The pouch is resealable and recyclable, helping to protect the capsules from light and air while using less plastic than a traditional bottle.
Each pouch contains 120 vegan capsules, providing 60 servings at two capsules per day. Take your capsules with water, ideally with a meal, as oil-based supplements are often easier to take alongside food. Store the pouch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep the oil at its best. As with all food supplements, these capsules should be used as part of a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Whole black seeds are often scattered over naan breads, added to pickles and tempered in hot oil for curries and dals. If you enjoy their flavour in food, these capsules are an easy way to include the cold-pressed oil on days when cooking is not on the agenda.

I started using Essentia Natura Collagen a few weeks ago, and I’m genuinely impressed. My skin feels smoother, my hair looks healthier, and even my joints feel less stiff after workouts. It’s such an easy addition to my routine, and I can already see the difference.
