Healthy nutrition for children is always one of the main concerns of parents. Following a specific diet with the highest nutritional value can partially alleviate this concern. One of the options is sesame and roasted sesame products with the flavor of Oghab. The presence of calcium, unsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants and various vitamins has made sesame one of the healthy and, of course, popular sources of nutrients.
In previous blogs, we have repeatedly mentioned the importance of consuming sesame and including it in meals, but in this blog we intend to specifically introduce sesame cream and its effect on the growth and health of children.
Sesame cream is a sesame product that is obtained by combining the flour obtained from peeled and roasted sesame with sugar, powdered milk and flavorings such as vanilla. Each spoon (30 grams) of this food contains 150 kcal of energy and its consumption can meet 7% of the body’s need for calcium and iron.
Next, we will take a look at the properties of sesame cream and its effect on children’s health.
Calcium
You may know that sesame seeds are a rich source of calcium. Sesame cream also contains a lot of calcium due to sesame, which can be used to provide calcium to children’s bodies due to children’s lack of interest in the taste and taste of milk. The calcium in this sesame product is one of the useful sources for strengthening teeth and bones and, as a result, increasing height in children.
Children’s interest and desire for breakfast chocolates, and of course their harm, cannot be ignored. For this purpose, Oghab Halva Sesame Cream with cocoa flavor can be considered a healthy and useful substitute for this type of chocolate.
Protein
Protein is one of the nutrients needed by the body that many parents are concerned about providing their children with on a daily basis. Protein is vital for building and repairing various cells and tissues in the body, and its consumption for children, especially during their growing years, has been emphasized. Sesame and, consequently, all sesame products are rich sources of protein, and the amount of protein in them is equal to the protein found in many other plant seeds and milk. Parents should be careful about providing their children with the daily protein they need.
Vitamin B
Another benefit of consuming sesame and sesame products such as sesame cream is that they are nutritious. The presence of vitamin B provides part of the daily needs of children for mental and physical activities and can be included in children’s food baskets as a healthy snack.
Antioxidant properties
Undoubtedly, all parents are aware of the importance of breakfast and its effect on their children’s performance. Another benefit of consuming sesame cream for children is increasing their brain function. The antioxidant properties of sesame in sesame paste increase blood flow and oxygen production, allowing the brain to remain active. Consuming sesame paste as a breakfast increases brain function over time.
As a leading manufacturer of sesame products, Oghab Factory has always strived to raise awareness of the importance of healthy eating.
The production of sesame paste products in various flavors such as cocoa, coffee, plain and sugar-free is an example of Oghab Halva Group’s efforts to change tastes and respond to the concerns of different age groups.
