FOR THE LOVE OF SELF AND VIVA TO OUR BLOOD HEALTH!
Sometimes we are bombarded with too much information and forget the tried-and-true. Such is the case with blood pressure and how we treat our blood health.
Ancient cultures have known for centuries what western civilizations seem to have to relearn and what marketers and brands try to reintroduce and reinvent.
Maybe if we stuck to the tried-and-true, we would have a chance to think different thoughts, because we would know our needs and remedies well enough to know what is necessary for our blood health.
The latest trends include coconut everything, olive oil, almonds, and now, let’s reintroduce sesame oil.
he oil is also used in cooking and as an ingredient in margarine and salad dressings as well as in certain cosmetics and skin softening products. Native to Asia and Africa, sesame is primarily cultivated in India, China, Africa, and Latin America. Only the seeds and oil of the sesame plant are used for medicinal purposes
The tried and true sesame oil. For centuries a proven, tested blood pressure remedy. 2.3 tablespoons a day.
Sesame oil also has beneficial effects on the levels of triglyceride, electrolytes, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidants. In the Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine, a NCBI NIH study, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1942178/ found sesame oil, (and equal property substitution of sesame oil) lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure remarkably in hypertensive patients.
The results suggested that sesame oil as edible oil lowered blood pressure, decreased lipid peroxidation, and increased antioxidant status in hypertensive patients.
Replacement of sesame oil as cooking oil in hypertensive patients brought their systolic and diastolic blood pressure to normal in a statistically significant fashion. Significant reduction in body weight and body mass index also was noted. After the withdrawal of sesame oil substitution, the values rose again.
