Your caption says, "Black Cumin OIl is not related to Cumin from Tumeric..."
Typos: Oll (oil), tumeric (turmeric) and it's curcumin in turmeric, not cumin - that's a different spice.

I think you can get as technical as you like, but for tidiness sake, keep it confined to one capsule. You need plenty of referenced information for this kind of thing, which you have got, but some more information on the plant it comes from, how it is made, etc.
Also, maybe point out some contraindications - I believe there may be some if taking other medication.
Thanks for the info - I'd not heard of it, so have been mooching around the web for more. Will probably order a bottle later
I agree that a section on contraindications is essential. I wrote a similar article on D mannose and HubPages insisted I list the contraindications from a health website, even though they've been proved to be incorrect
It seems pretty simple to me: you advocate for products you have used and found to be good.

You can never really tell when brand will be important or not. I recent replaced my lizard's light bulb with a technically identical bulb.... that killed my lizard.

Companies that sell herbal products are notoriously dishonest. Amazon is full of scam and counterfeit listings for trendy supplements. A study of protein powders for example, found *most* brands did not test out as matching their claims. if you are not recommended a specific brand you use, I think you would at least need to specify a third party certification and why it can be trusted, rather than just assume any provider will deliver a safe and effective dose.
Thanks to G, I've given up on writing anything medical. Doesn't matter whether I posted it here, my website, or anywhere else. Some of those articles were darn good, too. Didn't matter, Google immediately put it on page 10,467 of the search results, and permanently keeps it there. Except in very rare circumstances, unless the article is on a .gov site, that article is dead. I know, totally unfair. Shot in the dark, post it on FB?

Because of G's bias, my guess is HP has become terrified of all things medical. Can't say I blame them. I deleted all medical articles from my website months ago.
Spammy always means they find one or more of your links unacceptable. It's rhat simple. It's probably the Amazon link, for the reason Eric explained
Your thread has got me to thinking maybe I should throw out all my nutrition articles as well. I'll have to work up the energy to check Analytics. If I see any ytd zeros or anything close to it...
Come to think of it, the grocery store spice rack is the best medicine chest in town.
Turmeric "spice" - $4 at grocery store
Turmeric "herb" - $20 everywhere else
Cumin "spice" - $4 at grocery story
Cumin "herb" - $20 everywhere else
And the turmeric and cumin spice/herb will actually be the guaranteed real deal at the grocery store.
I happen to have both (from the grocery story).
I bought the cumin by mistake. I bought the turmeric because it has an active ingredient to shrink eye drusens. I shall now try the cumin for the blood pressure and the insomnia.
Cynic that I am, it's all marketing...
Table - $200
Computer Work Station - $500
Meanwhile, I'll take your word for it that the Nigella sativa has more than cumin active ingredients in it.

Actually, I read it 3 times. The second 2 times was to try to figure out what the miscommunication was about. I am going to hastily depart.

And why can't I add any Amazon capsules? If they're not allowed, then why are they even an option? The word count doesn't seem to matter because I can have over 2,000 words but have to remove them all before the hubs will become featured again. Either way, I like the color and...

I tend to use photos of Amazon products from the product's page when I'm promoting them on an article and just credit them to Amazon. This probably isn't such a good idea, but if the product is being promoted would they mind I wonder? The complication of course is the seller on Amazon might not own...

Hi all!I had a Amazon product link removed because apparently it didn't meet the necessary requirements. The link went out to the book I have used as a reference in the article and have paraphrased the authors' statements. Doesn't this imply that I have personally used this book? I own this book...

I have over 50 featured articles on HubPages. Many of them have received comments indicating that I am a very good writer, etc. I did used to make money on HubPages but then the rules changed about Amazon product links and referral trackers. I went from making dollars a day to making less than a...

Well, I haven't had any problems with the edit bot correcting spelling and grammar, but the HubPro editors do nothing but remove amazon capsules. I haven't edited many of my Hubs since way before the Bot and HubPro was a thing - but since I had to update Hubs because of the removal of float right,...

HubPages is primarily informational. Users need to be educated, informed or guided in so after they have spent significant time consuming the information, they may click through to purchase a single well chosen product because the guidance is so high quality. That would be a good use of placing an...
