HISTORY OF SESAME OIL
Sesame is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world. The tiny seeds of sesame have been known as a highly prized source of food oil in Babylon, Assyria and many other eastern countries for at least 4,000 years. SESAME OIL was first referred to in the 6th century as "Moa" in Chinese and "Koba" in Japanese.
EXTRA VIRGIN SESAME OIL
The finest of sesame seeds are mechanically cold pressed (at a temperature below 45C), and then filtered. It has the taste of sun ripened sesame seeds. Two natural preservatives known as sesamol and sesamolin are in SESAME OIL. When refrigerated, EXTRA VIRGIN SESAME OIL partially solidifies (crystals throughout), showing it has a high percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids (37% oleic) and saturated fatty acids (11% palmitic), making SESAME OIL more stable with a longer shelf life than other oils.
TOASTED SESAME OIL
The pulp remaining from the cold pressed process is reprocessed at a temperature above 100C to extract additional oil. The higher temperature causes the oil to have a darker colour and a strong flavour. TOASTED SESAME OIL is commonly used for cooking Oriental dishes.

THE FIVE MAJOR CLASSES OF NUTRIENTS ARE:
fats, proteins, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. In other words, yes, we all need some fat in our daily diet. There are good fats and bad fats, however. The following is a brief comparison:
| GOOD FATS | NOT SO GOOD FATS |
| UNSATURATED FATS are derived primarily from plants. They are liquid (oil) at room temperature. Oils are generally composed of both monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. | SATURATED FATS generally come from animal sources and are solid enough to hold their shape at room temperature (70F). Saturated fats are known as the nutritional "not so good guys". They're known to be associated with some forms of cancer and increase cholesterol levels which can be a contributing factor to heart disease. |
| MONOUNSATURATED FATS can help reduce the Levels of LDL cholesterol | HYDROGENATED OILS have been chemically transformed from their normal liquid state (at room temperature) into solids. The hydrogenation process includes pumping extra hydrogen atoms into saturated fat creating trans fatty acids. This converts the mixture into a saturated fat, obliterating any benefits it had as a polyunsaturate. Some researchers believe that hydrogenated oils may actually be more damaging than regular saturated fats for those limiting cholesterol in their diets |
POLYUNSATURATED FATS are also considered relatively healthy. Omega-3 Oils are a particular classification of fatty acids found in some plants and in the tissues of all sea creatures. These special polyunsaturated oils are known for lowering the bad LDL cholesterol and elevating the good HDL as well as for brain development and growth. Omega-6 Oils provide flexibility to cell membranes and controls a large number of rapid reactions in the body.
VITAMIN E IN BHI EXTRA VIRGIN SESAME OIL
- SESAME OIL contains 7.3mg of Vitamin E per 100gr of oil.
- Vitamin E in SESAME OIL is extremely important in maintaining good health.
- Vitamin E is reputed to increase stamina and keep one’s skin youthful. 2 teaspoons of BHI EXTRA VIRGIN SESAME OIL per day provides the total recommended daily intake of Vitamin E.
- On May 20, 1993, the New England Journal of Medicine published two papers by scientists from the Harvard School of Public Health, showing that Vitamin E reduces the risk of coronary heart disease.
- Vitamin E is one of the best and safest ways of enhancing immune function that is depleted by aging, to lower your risk of cancer and other diseases.
SAFETY TIPS FOR ALL OILS
- Always buy oils in glass containers. Plastic can leach chemicals into the oil.
- Keep bottles capped. Oxygen promotes the above mentioned chemical transfer and promotes rancidity.
- Use oils that are low in saturated fats.
Keep all oils refrigerated. Heat, light and air are destructive, so keep them cool, away from direct sunlight and with as little exposure to air as possible.
