The sesame seed is a powerpacked superfood and is probably the oldest of all cultivated seed crops. It has been regarded as a food of high value throughout Asia since ancient times.

There are primarily two types of sesame seeds; black and white. The black variety yields the best quality of oil and is also best suited for medicinal purposes. The white seeds are extremely rich in calcium and are useful in all cases of calcium deficiency. The oil extracted from sesame seeds is of very high medicinal quality. It has the finest flavour and a high boiling point.

The seeds are exceptionally rich in iron, magnesium, manganese, copper, and calcium and contain vitamin B₁ (thiamine) and vitamin E (tocopherol).They contain lignans, including unique content of sesamin, which are phytoestrogens with antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. Sesame oil is known to have the highest antioxidant content. Sesame seeds also contain phytosterols associated with reduced levels of blood cholesterol.
