In traditional Chinese medicine, there is also a saying that five colors enter the five internal organs, while black is the main kidney. Therefore, many people think that black sesame seeds have the functions of tonifying and strengthening the body and blackening the hair. In life, we do often hear old people say that eating black sesame seeds can blacken hair, so can eating black sesame seeds often really strengthen black and white hair? We might as well learn about the introduction of the medicinal value of black sesame in Chinese medicine.

1, black sesame can benefit liver and kidney and have black hair.

There is a certain reason why Chinese medicine pays attention to the five colors entering the five internal organs. Black mainly enters the kidney, so black sesame naturally has the function of entering the kidney. Moreover, Chinese medicine believes that black sesame is sweet in taste, mild in medicinal properties, and has the function of benefiting liver and kidney.

In ancient times, people used black sesame and frosted mulberry leaves to be compatible, which had the effect of nourishing liver and kidney and blackening hair. It has a certain effect on some diseases caused by liver and kidney deficiency and long-term illness, such as premature aging, premature aging, tinnitus and deafness.

2. Black sesame can replenish qi and blood and strengthen the body.

In ancient times, black sesame was also regarded as a treasure that could prolong life. Moreover, because the output of black sesame is low, planting and harvesting are complicated, and people rarely plant it, so the value of black sesame is much higher.

In ancient times, people thought that eating black sesame seeds could benefit qi and blood, prolong life, and it was a natural tonic treasure. Black sesame can be used with Chinese herbal medicines such as Radix Rehmanniae Preparata and Radix Morindae Officinalis, and its tonic effect is very good. Eating some black sesame often can really strengthen the body and prolong life. And this is also very helpful for nourishing the body, blackening hair and so on.

3, black sesame can moisten the intestines and relax the bowels.

We know that white sesame is a good product for making sesame oil, and black sesame is naturally rich in oily ingredients. Therefore, black sesame not only has a good nourishing effect, but also has a certain laxative effect because it is rich in oily ingredients.

Black sesame is especially suitable for relieving intestinal dryness and constipation caused by deficiency of qi and blood because of its tonic effect. When we were young, old people would fry some black sesame seeds to make black sesame paste when we had dry intestines and constipation and dry stools. Not only is it sweet and nutritious, but its effect of moistening intestines and relaxing bowels is also obvious.

It can be seen that black sesame does have a certain tonic function, but also has the effect of black beard and hair, and these functions are indispensable. Moreover, in modern medical research, it is found that black sesame not only has the above functions, but also has good anti-oxidative aging of cells and prevention of hardening of blood vessels. It can be seen that the utilization value of black sesame is quite good whether it is used as a food or as a tonic medicine.
