Our data suggested that N.S supplementation had significant impacts on liver and kidney parameters leading to a decrease in ALP and BUN levels .
The aim of this systematic review and dose-response meta- analysis was to determine the effect of Nigella Sativa ( N.S ) supplementation on  liver and kidney parameters .
Toxicity effect of nigella sativa on the liver function of rats.
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the toxic effect of Nigella sativa powder on the liver function which was evaluated by measuring liver enzymes and through histopathological examination of liver tissue . METHODS Twenty four male Sprague Dawley rats were allotted r and omly to four groups including : control ( taking normal diet ) ; low dose ( supplemented with 0.01 g/kg/day Nigella sativa ) ; normal dose ( supplemented with 0.1 g/kg/day Nigella sativa ) and high dose ( supplemented with 1 g/kg/day Nigella sativa ) . All of supplements administered in powder form mixed with rats ' pellet for 28 days . To assess liver toxicity , liver enzymes measurement and histological study were done at the end of supplementation . RESULTS The finding revealed that there was no significant change in serum alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) and aspartate aminotransferase ( AST ) between treatment groups . Histopathological study showed very minimal and mild changes in fatty degeneration in normal and high doses of Nigella sativa treated group . Inflammation and necrosis were absent . CONCLUSION The study showed that supplementation of Nigella sativa up to the dose of 1 g/kg supplemented for a period of 28 days result ed no changes in liver enzymes level and did not cause any toxicity effect on the liver function
