Discover the power to lower blood fat and blood sugar from a 'small but mighty' seed

Diabetes not only affects blood sugar levels, but it can also cause a host of problems that increase your risk of heart attack or stroke.

New research published in the journal Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome: Clinical Research and Reviews has found that a commonly added food has the ability to lower blood sugar.

Scientists from six Iranian medical universities conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of 13 studies including 731 diabetic participants, to assess the effects of sesame on glycemic control, blood lipid levels, inflammation, and other factors in diabetic patients.

Participants were supplemented with sesame seeds in various forms – as sesame oil, sesame seeds or capsules – at doses ranging from 200-60,000 mg per day. Interventions lasted for 6-12 weeks.

Researchers measured blood sugar, cholesterol, antioxidant capacity, weight, and markers of inflammation.

Eating sesame seeds helps reduce blood sugar after meals

The results found that consuming sesame seed products significantly improved several cardiovascular risk factors in people with diabetes, according to the health news site Eating Well.

Specifically, consuming sesame has the following effects:

  • Fasting hypoglycemia.
  • Reduced average blood sugar HbA1c.
  • Reduces blood sugar after meals.
  • Reduce bad cholesterol.
  • Reduces total cholesterol and triglycerides.
  • Increases levels of antioxidant enzymes.

These changes suggest that sesame may help regulate blood sugar, improve lipid profiles, and protect against oxidative stress – three important goals in managing diabetes and reducing the risk of heart disease. This suggests that sesame seeds have potential as a functional food for diabetes.

However, the effects appear to decrease after sesame supplementation is discontinued, meaning supplementation needs to be maintained long-term.

Sesame seed supplementation significantly improved cardiovascular risk factors in diabetics, highlighting its potential as an intervention to manage diabetes complications, the researchers concluded, according to Eating Well.

Large-scale trials are needed to confirm efficacy and guide clinical practice, the study authors said.

Of course, people still need to combine medical treatment, physical activity and a balanced diet. People who are taking diabetes or cholesterol medications should consult their doctor before making any major changes.
