Sesame seeds: Benefits and Properties

The sesame plant "sesamum indicum" is grown mainly in China, India and Burma, but also in Greece and Southern Italy. Seeds are contained within small elongated fruits that open when they become ripe. Sesame seeds can be divided into three categories, very similar in terms of nutritional properties and beneficial elements, but with some slight differences: white, the most widespread, which contain a slightly higher amount of calcium; blacks, the most difficult to find; red, which compared to others contain a greater amount of iron. 

The main peculiarity of sesame seeds is the high presence of calcium, this feature makes them a valid aid to strengthen bones and teeth.

But sesame seeds are also rich in magnesium, phosphorus, iron, manganese, selenium, zinc, protein, folic acid. Their content of beneficial substances gives them the ability to prevent certain forms of cancer and fight aging.

In addition, sesame seeds keep "bad" cholesterol (LDL) under control as they provide oleic and linoleic acid and increase "good" cholesterol (HDL).

They are also a valuable ally of the liver and gastrointestinal tract (they fight constipation among other things), strengthen the immune system and improve blood circulation (thanks to Lignans, substances that help control blood pressure).

Finally, sesame seeds are excellent as a tonic for children (recommended after 2 years of age) and promote their growth.
