Product History

Sesame oil is one of the oldest known edible oils, with a history dating back over 3,000 years. It was widely used in ancient civilizations such as India, China, and the Middle East for cooking, medicine, and religious rituals. In Ayurveda, sesame oil is considered highly valuable for its warming and nourishing properties. It has traditionally been used for massage (Abhyanga), detox therapies, and strengthening bones and muscles.

Due to its rich nutrient profile and stability, sesame oil has remained a staple in both culinary and therapeutic applications. Today, it is extensively used in skincare, hair care, pharmaceuticals, and wellness treatments.v
