Sesame

Black sesame is not only nutritious but can be used as medicine in the treatment of various diseases [27]. Black sesame has been shown to play a role in the inhibition of myocardial remodeling and protection of cardiovascular function [28], and may prevent the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis [29], and reduce total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, and blood lipids [30]. Black sesame seeds also have a significant protective effect with respect to chronic liver injury [31], they exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory [32], anti-tumor, anti-cancer [33,34], and anti-aging properties [35], and have been shown to protect against neurodegeneration [36]. Studies also reported that black sesame significantly decreased antioxidant stress, exhibiting protective effects in kidneys [37] and preventing osteoporosis [38,39].

  This is why we ask women to eat black sesame seeds with jaggery for a minimum of 3 months before planning the pregnancy. This helps to give birth to a healthy baby and avoid complications in pregnancy.

2018 Nobel prize was given for self-destruction of cancer cells called autophagy. Sesamin (one of the polyphenol present in black sesame seeds)activates autophagy in cervical cancer cells. So women and teenage girls please take black sesame during menstrual age. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29505783
