The nigella oil can be stored for a maximum of 24 months (i.e. 2 years) according to French legislation.
After this period, it is not recommended for consumption and is forbidden for sale. On top of this, it will have lost at least 20% of its benefits if its container has not been opened.
Storage conditions
Storage conditions will also have a very big impact on the shelf life of your product.
Why does a closed bottle allow black cumin oil to be stored longer?
When you open your bottle of black cumin oil, oxygen enters into interaction with your product and accelerates the oxidation process.
This is an unavoidable natural phenomenon that concerns all vegetable oils. We can act on it by slowing it down as much as possible by avoiding air/oil contact.
So, it's a good idea to keep the oil in contact with the air.
This is why an oil that has never been opened will keep better than one that has. So will an oil that has been properly resealed after each use, as opposed to one that has been left in the open.

Beware of unfiltered oils
At BioMiel and Co, we've decided to offer nigella oils that are filtered. This enables us to preserve them for much longer, and to offer them to you all year round, with an almost unlimited stock.
This is how we can communicate this 24-month shelf life.
If it wasn't filtered, you'd only be able to keep it for a few days. By the time it was shipped, you would have had to consume it within a week, to avoid it becoming indigestible.

Tricks for keeping black cumin longer
To keep nigella longer, simply consume it when diluted with other ingredients.
For example, you can opt for cigella solid shampoo.
If you wish to purchase cigella oil capsules or capsules, the lead times will be the same as for black cumin oil as the product is raw.
