Sesame, or Til, is a deeply revered seed in Ayurveda, especially for pacifying the Vata dosha. The oil derived from it, Til Taila, is the traditional base for almost all Ayurvedic massage oils. The seeds are a powerhouse of calcium, magnesium, and healthy fats. They are used to strengthen bones, nourish the nervous system, and promote strength and vitality.

  • For Bone Health: Incorporate sesame seed powder into your diet by adding it to smoothies, oatmeal, or mixing it into flour for baking.
