Cumin....as glandular cell multiplier
July 26 2007 at 5:55 AM Davilee (Login Davi-lee)
I had not had time to go through all the archive and check this for past posts on Cumin so please excuse me if its been mentioned before.
I kept forgetting to mention this,as its in a spot in my book thats easy to miss.
Im talking about the spice Cumin(Cuminum cyminum)& Black Cumin(Nigella sativa)
In the book The green Pharmacy it says that research has been done to show that Cumins increase the number of mammary glands of lab. animals.
He didnt have any facts on the effects on humans,but assumed it would be a similar effect.
You'll notice that the one is Nigella,it is a common flower in some people gardens,albeit it is an exotic species it grows well in most of the country,as it reseeds itself readily.You could have a unlimited supply of your own fresh seed to grind for tea or poultice or to put in your own creme.
He recommended that many spices and herbs are potent enough to be absorbed directly through the skin of the breasts,so its a good alternative to trying to find another pill and having to add another pill to your regimine.

Yes, I have come across cummin several times on info searches with regards to possibilities for breast growth, but really not a common herb on this forum.

I bought ground cumin to cook with back when I was trying to keep my NBE as natural as possible, but couldn't stand the taste and never touched it again. Do y'all think it's a good idea to make capsules with it? I wouldn't recommend massage, as it has the most hideous smell!

I found cumin in one herbal tea blend for increasing breast milk. I suppose it's a galactogogue, much like goat's rue.

There have definitely been a few NBE products that have used Cumin in the past, and there might still be some now, but as far as I know although it contains phytoestrogens it isn't regarded as high in them.

Yes,it has a strong smell.
I tried putting it in my herb tea straight and it doesnt go well with mint and ginger.Its too "savory" of a essence.
Perhaps I will try making my own capsules with it then I dont have to taste it. Im intrigued by the small info. I have on it.Im going to try and find some more out about it.
Yes,I thought of applying it topically also,but changed my mind,as i didnt want to feel and smell like I had meat tenderizer on me.
