NIGELLA (Black Sesame Oil), GIBRALTER (Halwa) and INCENSE from Egypt? |
Travel Info My friend just brought these things back from her vacation to be used as herbal remedies. I know some about the Nigella Oil, but not too much about the others. The Gibralter is to be cooked to a tea, and the Incense to be soaked in water overnight. I would really appreciate any information about them, how to prepare them, and how to use them the best. What is Incense actually good for?? Should take these things every day, once a week, or maybe two weeks intesively (as a "treatment")? Are there any contraindications, or do they react with other medications I may be taking? Has anyone taken these before? How did they help you? Thanks a lot in advance! Travel Tips Incense is part of everyday life in Egypt and other Middle eastern countries. We burn incense in special burners and we place it on already lit charcoal, or if it is a stick incense,u just light it up and it will release its aroma. Incense is never ingested by any means and i am afraid if u soak it in water it will be ruined and cannot be used after that. Think of it as aroma therapy. U can read more about it on this website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/incense... As for halwa it means sweets in Arabic. There r different types of Halwa and they r all edible. I am afraid that's all the information i know about Halwa u can post yr answer in Morocco forum and explain which type of halwa yr friend bought and their uses. |
