What's on my mind today....well it's actually been a couple of months now.....It's my Hair.  I am going gray, about 75% gray....so my hair dresser tells me....and there for I'm going lighter.....not too happy about this fact of life. So I have pulled out the Black sesame seeds...you may ask why? Well research suggests that antioxidant properties can prevent the oxidation of cells that cause grey hair.  I don't know if it will bring my dark hair back but it's worth a try. 

Here are some other reasons why you should eat Black Sesame Seeds.

• The skin is one of the parts of the body that readily benefits from eating sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are known regulators of skin health and are also good for skin cell growth.
• Sesame seeds are rich in antioxidants and antioxidants are strongly linked to anti-aging, cancer prevention and promoting heart health.  
• They are good for fighting off free radicals 
• Black sesame seeds are rich in minerals like iron, calcium, copper and manganese and phosphorus. 
• Black sesame seeds have been used in traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Ayurveda Indian medicine to address the underlying physical disturbances that lead to aging and premature gray hair.
