OIL EXTRACTION

Sesame seed oil comes in both cold-pressed and hot-pressed forms. The method of extraction is what determines the quality of the extract. The cold pressing procedure involves extracting the oil from sesame seeds without any chemical intervention or heating process. Temperature and chemical control result in the highest quality oil in terms of nutrients, purity, flavor, and fragrance. Although cold-pressing is costly and time-taking, it is the most preferred extraction process for producing the oil in its natural form.

Heals wounds Sesame oil is a good source of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-microbial properties which altogether help in increasing the wound healing process. Its antioxidants, including sesamol, sesamin & sesamum, helps in reducing cell damage caused by free radicals, responsible for inflammation. A study (2) also demonstrated wounds treated with ozonated oil (sesame oil in combination with ozone) showed better healing activity and a higher level of collagen in wound tissue. Thus, all these combinations with one another make topical application of cold-pressed sesame oil effective for promoting wound healing activity.

Aids in the Treatment of Arthritis The extract of sesame seed contains copper which exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, well known to reduce the pain associated with joints. Additionally, it also has anti-oxidative properties that help in reducing muscular oxidative stress, responsible for skeletal muscle dysfunction like joint pain.

Thus topical application and sesame oil massage may help in relieving joint pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, and reducing symptoms associated with arthritis.
