Sesame
is a plant grown primarily for its oil-rich seeds. The small,
cream-white sesame seed is used whole in cooking for its rich
nutty flavour, and also yields a cooking oil. Sesame seeds
are sometimes added to bagels and the top of hamburger buns.
Sesame seeds are baked into crackers, often in the form of
sticks. Sesame plants are also known as til in Hindi and benne
in some languages of Africa.

Sesame Seed Oil is naturally antibacterial for most common
skin pathogens; it is also antiviral and antifungal. You can
imagine that dried animal and even human waste littered the
paths and streets 2000 years ago. Using sesame seed oil rather
than water not only cleansed the feet but helped heal the
nicks, cuts and abrasions which must have been common on the
feet of anyone wearing sandals and walking long distances
at that time. Sesame seed oil is also naturally VATA balancing.
In Ayurvedic terms, that means that the build-up of excess
energy in the feet, from the simple process of walking, was
neutralized (in Ayurveda terms, pacified) by the action of
the oil penetrating the skin and circulating into the capillaries
of the veins in the foot. We've added to Ayurveda cured organic
sesame seed oil, essential oils of Geranium, Lavender, Eucalyptus
and Peppermint. The result is an oil which soothes, calms,
heals and gently stimulates the feet. As always, plant derived
Vitamin E has been added.
