Clinical studies have found that it has the effects of anti-hypertension and cardiovascular disease, liver protection, anti-oxidation, and cholesterol reduction. Here we will give a detailed introduction to the sesamin benefits!

The benefits of sesamin

  • Anti-oxidize effect

Sesamin has antioxidant properties. Antioxidant is a substance that can help the human body prevent, offset or repair antioxidant damage. Cells release oxygen metabolism byproducts called free radicals; free radicals are unstable substances that react with stable compounds and disrupt their normal functions. Free radicals are usually controlled by the body’s natural defense mechanisms, but when they are produced in too much quantity, they can cause damage. Free radicals are closely related to diseases such as deafness, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia. Sesamin is a potential antioxidant. In addition to effectively reducing the number of free radicals, it can also help repair damaged cells.

  • Improve blood lipids

Studies have found that sesamin can improve blood lipids in animals and humans. The combination of sesamin and linoleic acid to lower bad cholesterol and triglycerides may be beneficial in preventing heart attacks and strokes. Small amounts of cholesterol and triglycerides are necessary for the body to maintain proper function. However, excessive consumption can cause serious health diseases.

  • Hypotensive effect

The results of animal experiments found that sesamin has antihypertensive properties. Hypertension is a disease that can easily cause many serious diseases such as heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, aneurysm and kidney tumor. Sesamin can reduce the secretion of vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 and increase the amount of nitric oxide in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, which means that sesamin has a hypotensive effect.

  • Bactericidal effect

Sesamin is classified as a biologically active phytochemical because of its bactericidal effect. Sesamin is also a good insecticide and is known for its synergistic properties of insecticides.

  • Sesamin for fat loss

Eating sesamin during dieting to lose weight has many benefits. It has been proven that it can increase the body’s ability to burn fat while reducing body fat storage. Since restricting diet will cause muscle mass to break down, sesamin is particularly beneficial for maintaining lean muscle mass.

In addition to the above effects, sesamin can also protect the liver by promoting ethanol metabolism, accelerating fatty acid oxidation, and helping the body eliminate toxins. Studies have also found that sesamin can also inhibit the effects of chemical agents (7,12-dimeVlbeMLa] and H9cone) to induce breast diseases and treat skin diseases.

So far, there have been few reports on the side effects or negative effects of sesamin. One of the disadvantages is that excessive consumption will offset all its health benefits. In addition, it occasionally causes allergic reactions in some people. Sesamin oral intake of about 100-150mg of sesamin is enough to increase the body’s sesamin storage to a level that can maintain vitamin E in the body. Of course, the benefits of sesamin can also be obtained by eating sesame oil and other products derived from sesame seeds.
