In The Wake of Palm Oil Shortage, Sesame Oilis a Good Alternative

Kolkata, June 2022 : The recent global shortage of edible oils considerably stressed the food industry. Indonesia also prompted a blanket ban on palm-oil product exports. In the wake of this shortage and an increase in the domestic price of cooking oil, a lot of FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) manufacturers decided to switch to sesame oil. They were seeking an oil that would live up to its tagline of being “pure” and “natural”.

According to scientific data, sesame oil has 4.48x more polyunsaturated fatty acids and 1.7x more vitamin K per 100g compared to palm oil. While this is one reason why manufacturers and consumers are choosing sesame oil, another major reason is because it has several health benefits. Owing to its nutritional properties, it is considered the “Queen of Oils”. It is known to reduce blood pressure, prevent heart disease, improve oral health and reduce swelling of the joints. In the olden days, sesame oil was also used for oil pulling, a practice to remove bacteria and promote oral hygiene.

Sesame oil also holds an important place in Ayurveda. Owing to the versatile nature of sesame seeds, it is often used in powder, oil or paste form. Though there is a demand for sesame oil, a lot of industries are facing various hurdles finding the right manufacturer. To fill the void and cater to a gamut of segments that depend on various edible oils, sesame oil manufacturers are stepping in. They’re offering premium quality virgin sesame oil, virgin black sesame oil, roasted sesame oil & refine sesame oil.

B.N. Exports Private Limited is one such company that offers certified sesame oils. The company is accredited as a Star Export House and certified by ISO 9001:2015. They’re also a member of statutory bodies and export councils including FIEO, IOPEPC, FSSAI and SHEFEXIL. Their oils are 100% pure and vegan, and can be used for everyday cooking to retain the maximum nourishment of the food. Apart from cooking purpose, virgin sesame oil is also a highly acclaimed massage and healing oil.
