Black Cumin Metabolic Health Meta-AnalysisAmong the noteworthy findings was that offering vegetables with a reduced-fat dip containing herb and spice flavors increased tasting, liking, acceptance, and/or consumption of vegetables among preschool children 3-5 years old.4Johnson GH (2026)Exploratory Studies on the Potential Health Benefits of Spices and Herbs.
Black Cumin Metabolic Health Meta-AnalysisConsumers reported increased liking of an herb and spice-modified low-salt (LS) soup after repeated exposure, while no such increase was seen for its LS counterpart without spices and herbs.4Johnson GH (2026)Exploratory Studies on the Potential Health Benefits of Spices and Herbs.
Black Cumin Metabolic Health Meta-AnalysisStudies in the category of metabolic health have reported that speed of working memory was increased by an acute low dose of rosemary (750 mg) provided in tomato juice among free-living elderly study participants (65-90 years of age), whereas the opposite effect resulted from the highest dose (6000 mg).4Johnson GH (2026)Exploratory Studies on the Potential Health Benefits of Spices and Herbs.
