What is Sesame Oil?

Sesame oil or gingelly oil, which comes from sesame seeds, is lesser-known vegetable oil. It is, in fact, one of the healthiest alternatives to normal vegetable oils. Sesame seeds are small yellowish brown seeds that are primarily found in Africa, but they also grow in smaller numbers on the Indian subcontinent.

Sesame oil has gained quite a bit of popularity in recent years because it is relatively inexpensive to extract (simple hot water flotation or a variety of pressing techniques). However, this oil is best acquired when the seeds are completely ripe, which means that the outer shells burst. The problem is the manual processing that sesame seeds require, because of which there will always be more demand than supply.

The impressive amount of vitamins such as vitamin E and vitamin K (source: USDA), organic compounds, and other beneficial components in sesame oil is the reason why it is considered so healthy

Health Benefits of Sesame Oil

Let’s take a closer look at what health benefits can actually be enjoyed when you add this oil to your diet.

Hair Care

Sesame oil has traditionally been used to improve hair health.  A study conducted on the bioactive components of sesame oil revealed that black sesame oil can help retain the natural hair color and minimize hair loss. Furthermore, the anti-bacterial effects of gingelly oil can help eliminate the pathogens or foreign bodies that can attack your scalp or hair.

Diabetes

Research published in 2006 states that adding sesame oil to the diet can help manage the plasma glucose levels in hypertensive diabetics.  It is also helpful in lowering high blood pressure.

Skin Care

Gingelly oil is rich in zinc, given it is extracted from zinc-rich sesame seeds, which is one of the most important minerals for your skin. It can increase skin elasticity and smoothness and reduce oxidative stress, thereby helping reduce the appearance of age spots and eliminating skin conditions, including premature aging.

A study conducted by Dr. Lily Zhong, California State University, Los Angeles, USA, revealed that applying sesame oil topically to the skin can help create a protective layer on the skin and save you from the harmful UV rays. In some places, sesame oil has even been used to treat fungal diseases on the skin.

Protects Heart Health

Sesame oil is a heart-friendly and delicious oil because of its fatty acid content. According to research conducted on the ‘Effect of sesame oil on serum and liver lipid profiles in the rat’,  sesame oil is able to lower bad cholesterol levels as it contains a wide range of polyunsaturatedfatty acids, including sesamol and sesamin. These fatty acids keep the cardiovascular system strong and the LDL cholesterol levels low, thereby preventing atherosclerosis. This means that you are better protected from a heart attack and stroke if you add sesame oil to your diet.
