Children aged eleven and under could take half the recommended adult dosage
Children under the age of five should only be given a drop or two, to begin with. Strong black seed oil is not recommended for children under five.
Your dosage and progression depend on your individual response to the oil. A higher dosage from the start could lead to adverse reactions.
