Ingredients

  • 50g (1.75 oz) flax seeds
  • 50g (1.75 oz) sesame seeds
  • 50g (1.75 oz) pumpkin seeds
  • 20g (0.7 oz) black cumin seeds (or 1 tbsp black cumin oil)

  • 50g (1.75 oz) raisins

Instructions

  1. Prepare dry ingredients: Measure out flax seeds, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and black cumin seeds into separate bowls.
  2. First blend: Add all four types of seeds to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until finely ground but not powdered – you want some texture remaining.
  3. Add gelatin: Add unflavored gelatin powder to the seed mixture and pulse briefly to combine.
  4. Add raisins: Add raisins to the blender and pulse until they’re chopped and well distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. Incorporate honey: Add natural honey to the mixture and blend until everything is thoroughly combined and forms a thick, paste-like consistency.
  6. Transfer and store: Spoon the mixture into a clean glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Store in the refrigerator.
  7. Serving method: Take 1 teaspoon on an empty stomach, 20 minutes before breakfast.

Why This Recipe May Support Wellness

This seed mixture provides nutrients that may contribute to bone and joint health as part of a balanced diet. Flax seeds contain omega-3 fatty acids and lignans that may help reduce inflammation. Sesame seeds are notably high in calcium, magnesium, and zinc – minerals important for bone structure. Pumpkin seeds provide magnesium, zinc, and antioxidants. Black cumin seeds contain compounds that have been studied for their potential anti-inflammatory properties. Gelatin provides amino acids that are building blocks for cartilage, though dietary gelatin alone cannot regenerate damaged cartilage. The combination creates a nutrient-dense supplement that supports overall nutritional intake when combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Important Notes:

  • Take as directed – one teaspoon daily before breakfast
  • This supplement works best alongside proper nutrition, exercise, and medical care
  • Individual results may vary significantly
  • Consult healthcare providers for persistent joint pain or mobility issues
