Sesamin, a magic component in sesame seeds represents strong antioxidation in life body resulting in multiple physiological functions:

1. Liver guard Sesamin is a non-competitive inhibitor of ?5-desaturase, It hastens metabolism of ethanol, increases hepatic fatty acid oxidation but decreases hepatic fatty acid.
