Food and nutraceutical functions of sesame oil: An underutilized crop for nutritional and health benefits
2022 Sep Food Chemistry Langyan S, Yadava P, Sharma S, Gupta NC, Bansal R, Yadav R, et al.
Sesame oil, despite being an under-utilized minor crop, is rich in nutrients such as lignans, tocopherols, phytosterols, natural antioxidants, and bioactive compounds. The review underscores its various health benefits, including anti-lipogenic, hypo-cholesterolemic, anti-degenerative, and neural health-promoting properties. The study emphasizes the need for more research to explore sesame oil's food and nutraceutical potential, positioning it as a valuable candidate for maintaining diversity in food oils and improving human health.

Consumption of sesame seeds and sesame products has favorable effects on blood glucose levels but not on insulin resistance: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of controlled clinical trials
2022 Jan 18 Phytotherapy Research Sohouli MH, Haghshenas N, Hernández‐Ruiz , Shidfar F
Sesame and its products, including sesame oil, sesamin, and tahini, demonstrated significant positive effects on fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels (WMD: −21.31 mg/dl, 95% CI: −41.23, −1.39, p = .036) and HbA1c (WMD: −0.75, 95% CI: −1.16, −0.34, p < .001). However, results regarding fasting serum insulin (WMD: 5.51 μU/ml, 95% CI: −2.31, 13.33, p = .167) and HOMA-IR (WMD: −0.07, 95% CI: −0.33, 0.20, p = .617) were not statistically significant. In conclusion, sesame may be considered a beneficial agent for human glucose metabolism and can be a valuable component of glucose-lowering diets.

Systematic Review
A number of studies suggested that sesame products improve body weight and composition. This was the first meta-analysis of the effect of sesame on body weight and composition. Ten controlled clinical trials were eligible to be included in the systematic review. Sesame supplementation improved body fat percent and body adiposity index. Sesame oil intake was associated with reduced body weight and body mass index. Sesame consumption did not affect other indices of body composition.
The studies assessed showed that sesame could have a significant effect on oxidative stress and the antioxidant defense system, being considered a food with an important antioxidant function in the different populations studied.

Systematic Review Sesame
In conclusion, despite the limitations and biases of this systematic review, the studies assessed showed that sesame could have a significant effect on oxidative stress and the antioxidant defense system, being considered a food with an important antioxidant function in the different populations studied (individuals with dyslipidemia, diabetes, and hypertension), as well as in its different presentations (oil, seed flour, and capsule). However, better-controlled studies still lack to assess the positive effects on different populations.
There are few clinical trials assessing the effect of sesame on oxidative stress. The studies included in this review, mainly those with sesame oil and black sesame meal capsules administered to hypertensive and prehypertensive populations, respectively, showed an increase in enzymatic (SOD, GSH, GPx, and CAT) and nonenzymatic antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene), as well as a reduction in oxidative stress markers (TBARS and MDA).
Although several studies have reported that the exact mechanisms of oxidative stress reduction remain to be fully explained, this review showed that sesame can have a significant positive impact on the health of different popula- tions.
