Description Sesamin is a naturally occurring lignan that is present in pure sesame oil. For your information, a lignan is broadly considered an antioxidant that is present in unfiltered and unrefined seeds of sesame, pumpkin and flax as well as many other foods. Besides being a strong antioxidant, sesamin has shown great promise as a lipid oxidizer as well as to support anti inflammatory action. Its main mechanism for fatty acid oxidation (fat burning) is triggered by the enzyme known as PPAR alpha. PPAR alpha (Peroxisome Proliferator Activator Receptor Alpha) is documented to exist in muscle, the liver and adipose tissue (fat). Sesamin being a strong activator of this enzyme (PPAR alpha) is also involved in the beta oxidation of fatty acids while simultaneously decreasing lipogenesis, or in simple terms, the accretion of new fatty acids. In other words, PPAR alpha activation is directly correlated with increasing fat burning in muscle tissue. Which is a good thing! Sesamin is an excellent addition to anybody's workout regimen, not only to increase fat burning, but also for its overall anti oxidant and nutrient partioning properties.
