A product in your pantry may hold the secret to protecting the heart from disease. UCF researchers have found that sesame oil can prevent or reduce the development of the build-up of plaque in the artery walls, known as atherosclerosis.<\/p>\n

In a study recently published in Nature\u2019s\u00a0Scientific Reports<\/em>\u00a0journal, Sampath Parthasarathy, a cardiovascular researcher at the UCF College of Medicine<\/a>, found that mice treated for 30 days with sesame oil extracts, and later exposed to a high fat diet developed significantly less plaque buildup compared to a control group that received no treatment.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an important discovery because current atherosclerosis drug therapies, like statins, focus on lowering cholesterol and do not target inflammation.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Known in some dietary circles as the \u201cqueen\u201d of oils, sesame oil is believed to have natural antibacterial, antiviral, and antioxidant properties. It is also a rich source of polyunsaturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fats that can help keep cells and arteries healthy. In a previous study, Parthasarathy found mice treated with sesame oil were 60 to 80 percent less likely to develop heart disease, as the properties in sesame oil reduced both cholesterol and chronic inflammation, the two leading contributors to atherosclerosis.<\/p>\n

Parthasarathy, who holds the Florida Hospital endowed chair in cardiovascular sciences, believes that most of sesame oil\u2019s benefits come from additional water-soluble compounds that are produced when the oil is extracted from sesame seeds. \u00a0His laboratory has identified several novel compounds in sesame oil that may have anti-inflammatory properties. They have developed a unique method to separate these non-fat components, producing a sesame oil aqueous extract, which can be freeze-dried and added to common beverages such as lemonade or tea. The current study was aimed at testing whether the water soluble components of the oil would have the same effects in inhibiting atherosclerosis as the oil itself.<\/p>\n

In the study, Parthasarathy divided mouse models into three groups. \u00a0For 30 days, one group received daily doses of whole sesame oil, the second group received the aqueous extract and the third control group received no treatment. \u00a0After the first 30 days, all three groups of mice were placed on high fat diets for another 30 days. At the end of the study, tests revealed that the control group developed atherosclerosis, while the sesame oil-treated group and the extract-treated group did not.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe found that one month of pre-treatment with sesame oil and the aqueous extract prevented the subsequent development of atherosclerosis by about 55 to 60 percent, even with a high fat diet,\u201d Parthasarathy says. \u201cThis is the first time a nutritional product has been shown to decrease or prevent future development of atherosclerosis.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first time a nutritional product has been shown to decrease or prevent future development of atherosclerosis.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mice treated with both sesame oil and the aqueous extracts also had decreased inflammation. However, only mice that received sesame oil showed decreased cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsidering both groups were protected from atherosclerosis, this tells us that inflammation is more important in causing the disease than cholesterol,\u201d Parthasarathy says, citing the need for more studies on the role of inflammation in atherosclerosis. \u201cThis is an important discovery because current atherosclerosis drug therapies, like statins, focus on lowering cholesterol and do not target inflammation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Statins also have side effects such as muscle pain, digestive problems and in rare cases liver damage.<\/p>\n

Sesame oil is not a preferred choice for cooking because its low smoke point causes it to burns quickly. But Parthasarathy suggests incorporating it into meals by adding a tablespoon to soup, sauces or smoothies or using it as a salad dressing. He also recommends using unrefined or cold-pressed sesame oil as these oils retain most of the beneficial components that are filtered out during the refining process.<\/p>\n

The research team wants to do further studies of the effects of statins used in combination with sesame oil in decreasing cholesterol and preventing inflammation. \u00a0With its noted anti-inflammatory effects, his lab is also exploring sesame oil\u2019s effects for other inflammatory conditions such as Crohn\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n
