Importance of Nigella sativa in Radiotherapy or Chemotherapy | Asian Journal of Research in Medicine

The goal of this study is to see if Nigella sativa can help those who are undergoing radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Cancer is one of the most serious hazards to modern life, and it is widely acknowledged as the second leading cause of mortality, following myocardial infarction. Chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and other treatments currently available cannot give comprehensive treatment for cancer cases that are not detected early. Since it is a natural medicinal remedy as well as a kitchen spice, Nigella sativa has been employed in the treatment of numerous disorders in traditional medicine for over 2000 years. The insufficiency of current treatments motivates researchers to develop new, more effective treatments. Antibacterial, antifungal, antihelmintic, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antiinflammatory, analgesic, gastroprotective, hepatoprotective, renoprotective, anti-convulsant, and antiastmia are only a few of the effects studied. As a result, Nigella sativa is utilised in cancer treatment in both in-vivo and in-vitro research because of its therapeutic and protective effects on a variety of systems, and it is known that it does not affect healthy cells. Despite the fact that scientific investigations are undertaken, the number of studies currently available is restricted. Clinical trials are required to demonstrate a probable beneficial effect on the existing kinds of cancer.
