Benefits of adding sesame seeds to your diet

• Excellent for your skin and hair: You should still remember my little story of Babylon when sesame seeds were being used to help prolong beauty. This is actually because sesame has been scientifically proven to give significant improvement to the skin and hair. In fact, many skin care and hair care products contain sesame seed extracts. The seeds carry many complex B vitamins which are important for many parts of your body, including your hair, skin, and eyes.  These B vitamins include thiamin, niacin, folic acid, pyridoxine, and riboflavin.
• Packed with wonderful minerals: The sesame seed is rich in essential minerals like copper, magnesium, and calcium.  It’s important that your body gets a regular dose of these minerals as they carry many health benefits.  Copper is good for sufferers of rheumatoid arthritis while magnesium is good for helping those people with respiratory problems.
• Good source of protein and fibers: They may be tiny in stature but sesames are big when it comes to providing your body with protein and fiber.  This protein will help in the maintenance and development of muscles, while the fiber from sesame seeds helps support a healthy digestive system.
• Allows development of strong bones: Sesame is a great source of both calcium and zinc, and both these minerals play a key role in helping to maintain strong, healthy bones.  Eating sesame on a regular basis can help prevent osteoporosis, making sesame seeds a popular part of the diet of older individuals.
