Yup I'm on my latest kick of finding a super herb to add to my abx protocol and black cumin seeds are it! Below are 3 articles I found on scientific studies. I also read on another forum (can't confirm it but will look to) which is quite interesting for those who are fighting bartonella.

Cancer and bartonella need to prevent the apoptosis of the cells they victimize, and to stimulate the growth of nearby blood vessels (angiogenesis).
They both do this by activating an inflammatory factor called NFkB, Nuclear Factor kappa B.
Nigella sativa and the other herbs known to be helpful against cancers work against this by inhibiting the activation of NFkB."
