Sesame seeds are especially beneficial for women because they lose calcium faster through their cycle and as they age.
A few things worth knowing before you start👇🏼
- Three tablespoons daily is enough. More than that regularly can be heavy on digestion.
- Soaking sesame seeds overnight makes the calcium easier for your body to absorb. And cooking them does not reduce the calcium either, so feel free to add them to your dal, khichdi or sabzi.
- You can also try black sesame seeds. They are better for maximum nutrition and antioxidants, while white sesame seeds are milder in flavour and more versatile in cooking. A simple way to have black sesame is to dry roast them lightly and sprinkle over your meals, or grind them into a powder and mix into warm water or plant based milk every morning.
