1. Antioxidant Function of Sesame Oil
Sesame oil reduces lipid peroxidation and hydroxyl radicals, increases superoxide
dismutase and catalase activity. Sesame oil diet significantly reduces FEN-induced
oxidative stress in liver tissue. Sesame oil can inhibit cypermethrin-induced brain toxicity,
which is closely related to reducing oxidative stress and protecting antioxidant enzymes.
