In a study conducted by the Indian
researchers from Annamalai University in India revealed that Sesame Oil has the
outstanding ability to help those suffering from Type 2 Diabetes.
In this open label study 60
participants suffering from type 2 diabetes were divided into three groups. One
group was asked to consume 35 g of Sesame oil daily. The other group was
instructed to take 35g of Sesame oil together with 5 g of diabetic drug
glibenclamide. The third group was taking the drug alone.
After only 60 days, blood glucose
levels were significantly decreased in both groups taking Sesame seed oil. The
activity of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants was also dramatically
improved in both groups taking Sesame seed oil alone and Sesame oil with
glibenclamide drug.
Furthermore, levels of total
cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides were considerably lessened in both
Sesame seed oil taking groups.
Sesame seed oil can be easily found in most of
the supermarkets and the health food stores, throughout the world. (It is
recommended cold pressed, unrefined and organic Sesame seed oil, if possible.)
