Benefits

The cold pressed sesame oil smoke point can vary depending on the type of seed used and whether raw or toasted. Toasted sesame seed has a lower smoke point and gives off a dark oil colour. Raw/untoasted sesame seed oil is a lighter colour, full of flavour with a higher smoke point. It’s a nutritious oil that has been used in cooking and traditional medicine for centuries!

Containing two unique naturally powerful antioxidants called Sesamol and Sesamin, sesame oil can help with reducing blood pressure amongst many other benefits:

  1. Nutrient-Rich: Sesame oil is rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin E, vitamin K, and several minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron. These nutrients play vital roles in various bodily functions, including immune support, bone health, and blood clotting.
  2. Heart Health: Sesame oil contains monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, including omega-6 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart health. These healthy fats can help reduce LDL cholesterol (the “bad” cholesterol) levels and lower the risk of cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks and strokes when consumed as part of a balanced diet.
  3. Antioxidant Properties: Sesame oil contains antioxidants such as sesamol and sesaminol, which help neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in the body. Antioxidants play a crucial role in preventing cellular damage and reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
  4. Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Sesame oil possesses anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce inflammation throughout the body. Chronic inflammation is linked to various health conditions, including arthritis, autoimmune diseases, and obesity. Consuming sesame oil regularly may help mitigate inflammation and promote overall health.
  5. Skin and Hair Health: Sesame oil is often used topically for its moisturizing and nourishing properties. It helps hydrate the skin, protect against dryness and irritation, and may even have antibacterial and antifungal effects. When consumed internally, sesame oil’s vitamin E content can also benefit skin health by promoting cell repair and regeneration.
  6. Digestive Health: In traditional medicine, sesame oil has been used to support digestive health. It may help improve digestion, alleviate constipation, and reduce symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders. The oil’s lubricating properties can also soothe the digestive tract and promote regular bowel movements.
  7. Bone Health: Sesame oil is a good source of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus, which are essential minerals for maintaining strong and healthy bones. Regular consumption of sesame oil may help prevent bone loss, osteoporosis, and fractures, particularly in postmenopausal women and older adults.
  8. Versatility in Cooking: Sesame oil has a rich, nutty flavor and a high smoke point, making it suitable for various cooking methods, including stir-frying, sautéing, and deep-frying. It adds depth and aroma to dishes and is commonly used in Asian cuisines for its distinctive taste.

Overall, sesame oil is not only a delicious addition to meals but also offers numerous health benefits when consumed as part of a balanced diet. However, like any oil, it should be used in moderation to avoid excess calorie intake.
