*SESAME SEEDS*
Here are 15 health benefits of sesame seeds, but I will be dropping one today. Stay tuned for the rest.
1. Good Source of Fiber
Three tablespoons (30 grams) of unhulled sesame seeds provide 3.5 grams of fiber, which is 12% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) (2Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source).
Since the average fiber intake in the United States is only half of the RDI, eating sesame seeds regularly could help increase your fiber intake (4Trusted Source).
Fiber is well known for supporting digestive health. Additionally, growing evidence suggests that fiber may play a role in reducing your risk of heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, and type 2 diabetes (4Trusted Source).
SUMMARY
A 3-tablespoon (30-gram) serving of sesame seeds supplies 12% of the RDI for fiber, which is vital for your digestive health
