Sunflower seeds are also high in pantothenic acid, known to reduce the effects of acne and aid in the healing scars and wounds. Overall, sunflower seeds are calorie for calorie, one of nature's most potent forms of nutrition. Sesame oil is one of the oldest oils known man, with samples as much as 3000 years old being found by archaeologists in India and Persia. This ancient healing oil is high in manganese, copper, and calcium, along with two chemicals totally unique to sesame seeds, sesamin and sesamolin. Sesamin has been shown to increase the body's ability to burn fat while also decreasing its fat storage capacity, making it an increasingly popular supplement for weight loss. Research shows that sesamolin can protect the liver from oxidative damage. When rubbed on the skin, sesame oil has been known to relieve sunburns, aid in the healing process, and, according to some reports even reduce wrinkles.
