Supercharge with this unique tasting Sesame Oil

 

Kaizer White Sesame Oil is unlike any other oil you have tried. This raw and unprocessed version has a sensory appeal and nutritional value that puts it in a category far above the toasted sesame oils. These heavily toasted oils exclusively line the supermarket shelves. They are nutritionally barren with a strong and crude aroma and taste. Unlike its commercial counterpart, Kaizer’s cold-pressed white sesame oil is gentle on the senses. It uplifts mood, boosts motivation, and speeds up recovery from fatigue.

 

 

Fend off wrinkles, slow down ageing

 

Kaizer sesame oil is the most antioxidant packed oil of all.1 Antioxidants are a friend in the battle against ageing.2 Regular use of this will help you look younger for longer, while you enjoy the intriguing smoky flavour.

 

Good-bye fatigue with sesame oil

 

Feel mentally and physically exhausted day after day? Daily tiredness could be caused by persistent oxidative stress. Environmental factors and a poor diet can lead to chronic fatigue. Sesamin and vitamin E in sesame oil can provide physical and mental vigour by eliminating the free radicals that sap your energy.3

 

The dietary supplement for depression and Parkinson’s

 

Sesame oil can raise the level of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Depressed levels of dopamine affect vital brain functions such as sleep, memory, mood, motor control, arousal, and learning.4 Sesame oil is shown to improve symptoms of clinical depression5 and also it can prevent the neuron damage that occurs in Parkinson’s disease.6

 

Less guilt, more pleasure

 

Sesame oil, rich in phytosterols, is as effective as olive oil at naturally lowering bad cholesterol or LDL7,8 and it can even increase good cholesterol or HDL.9 If you have high cholesterol, you won’t feel guilty feasting on your favourites when you cook in Kaizer White Sesame Oil.
