THE MARVELS OF TAHINI

Hi there, health lovers! Let’s discuss about a tiny tahini jar that is probably hidden in your kitchen. Middle Eastern condiment tahini is created from toasted ground sesame seeds. It’s perhaps best known as the creamy paste that makes hummus delicious, but did you know that it’s also a rich source of nutrients for your bones, heart, and skin, among other things?… Let’s examine the reasons why tahini ought to be a mainstay of your diet.

Heart health: Love Your Heart Using Tahini

First things first: love your heart. Tahini is packed with healthy fats mainly mono-unsaturated which promote healthy cardiovascular health. These fats can help to lessen the levels of bad cholesterol and hence lower risks of suffering from heart ailments. Furthermore, tahini contains plant sterols which aid in even lowering cholesterol levels further. Therefore, next time you prepare a salad think about using a dressing made of tahini – it will benefit your heart!

Bone Strength: Building Strong Foundations

Do you know that tahini is one of the best sources of calcium? Yes, this is the same mineral that keeps our bones strong and healthy. In fact, just two tablespoons of tahini contain around 15% of the recommended daily intake for adults. This is particularly good news if you are lactose intolerant or vegan and need other non-dairy sources for this necessary element. Also, tahini has phosphorus and magnesium too that are both instrumental in maintaining healthy bones and avoiding osteoporosis.

Beauty Booster: Glow from Within

What if you were told that a basic pantry item can actually act as a beauty booster? Tahini is rich in sesamol and sesaminol – antioxidants which prevent damage to your skin by free radicals. These anti-inflammatory substances contribute towards healthy skin, hence granting it natural radiance. Furthermore, it is the good fats in tahini that ensure the hydration of your skin and keep it looking supple. You will probably notice some changes on your face when you include tahini in your diet!

Nutritional Powerhouse: More Than Just a Spread

Tahini is not just tasty spread; it is indeed a power food which supplies great nutrition to our bodies. Essential vitamins such as thiamine (B vitamin) helping change food into energy; or vitamin E with its anti-inflammatory properties can be found in plenty of amounts here. Moreover, vegetarians/ vegans who might need extra protein can obtain some from this plant-based protein source known as Tahini!

Versatility: A Culinary Expert

Again, let’s not disregard its versatility. Besides hummus, it can be sprinkled over vegetables that are roasted, included in smoothies or dressings even for baking. Its rich and nutty flavour adds a lovely touch to both sweet and Savory dishes making it an amazing thing to experiment with in the kitchen.
