Great For Cooking; Great For Your Health
Like olive oil, sesame seed oil’s culinary versatility is tremendous. Ways you can use it are:
- Sautéing
- Pan frying
- Grilling
- Baking
- Drizzling on entrees and salads
- Sauces
- Dips
- Creams
- Dressings
But the many health benefits sesame seed oil has may be far greater than that of olive oil. Did you know that it is also a great source of food supplement and therapeutic substance?
In vitro studies have shown that sesame seed oil can inhibit the growth of melanoma and colon cancer cells. Its heart and cardiovascular health benefits due to high polyunsaturated fatty acid content such as Omega 3 and 6 are well documented. It is also high in Vitamin E, a potent anti-oxidant, and Vitamin K, an important substance for optimal blood coagulation, and bone, soft tissue and arterial health.
Sesame Seed Oil And Oral Health
Additionally, sesame seed oil is a great antibacterial agent that keeps skin healthful, strengthens and whitens teeth, and helps eliminate bleeding gums and gingivitis. A not-too-well-known health benefit of sesame seed oil is its detoxifying effect on the body when used in “oil pulling”—the rinsing of the mouth with oil. Through oil pulling, sesame oil can effectively remove toxins from the body through the gums. As part of a morning routine, swish a tablespoon of raw sesame seed oil in our mouth for 15-20 minutes before breakfast. By swishing the oil in the mouth, drawing it through your teeth and chewing on it, your digestive enzymes get activated and your metabolism is switched into higher gear.
When done, you do not swallow since the oily saliva mix contains toxic substances that came through the gums, but spit it out. Next, thoroughly rinse the mouth with warm water and be ready to face the day refreshed and energized. We must note that it may take 2-3 weeks to feel its full effects. You may also feel tired at times as the detoxification process ensues.
Take Advantage Of Sesame Seed Oils Healing Properties
Raw sesame oil does not substitute medical care but through its healing properties it may help in the treatment of diabetes, high blood pressure, dental plaque and gingivitis, multiple sclerosis, atherosclerosis, depression, cancer, radiation damage, bacterial infection and it is a great massage oil. So let’s drink and eat up.
What Kind Of Sesame Seed Oil Is Best?

The choice of sesame seed oil grade is analogous to the choice between top grade extra virgin and plain reprocessed olive oil. Similarly you want to get the best quality, organic sesame seed oil. Of all the sesame seed oils we tried from commercial sources we are confident ours surpass all of them. You will know the difference when you taste our oil. We guarantee it. This is why we call it the “emperor of oils.”
