4. Relieve Hypertension
The medical community refers to hypertension as, “the silent killer.” High blood pressure symptoms can go unnoticed until they create a catastrophic cardiovascular event.
Individuals suffering from high blood pressure require medication to relieve the symptoms of the condition. Returning blood pressure to normal levels involves a balance of medicine, diet changes, and activity.
Remove toxic vegetable oils high in omega-9 fatty acids and add sesame oil to your cooking instead. Sesame oil differs from other vegetable oils in its nutritional profile and benefits. The oil is a rich source of polyunsaturated fatty acids. These PUFA’s reduce cholesterol triglycerides in the blood while rebalancing your cholesterol profile.
Consuming sesame oil reduces the number of harmful cholesterol lipids (LDL) produced in the liver while increasing the amount of good cholesterol (HDL) lipids. The oil is low in saturated fats that congest arterial walls and raise blood pressure. Sesamol and sesamin clear the blood of free radicals increasing oxygen levels in blood plasma.
