Effects of two-months Nigella sativa supplementation on cardiac hemodynamics and adrenergic responsiveness.

Abstract

The demonstrated favourable results of N. sativa supplementation on the intrinsic cardiac contractile properties without evidence of an increased cardiac work load or energy consumption in vivo makes N. sativa an attractive inotropic agent with an economic haemodynamic profile. Further research is recommended to explore the usefulness of N. sativa in cardiovascular disorders associated with systolic dysfunction.
