If you are currently taking, or are planning to take, a tocotrienols/tocopherols (or loosely speaking, Vitamin E) complex, you can dramatically improve absorption and effectiveness by adding sesame lignans to those tocotrienols/tocopherols. Sesame lignans inhibit the enzyme (CYP3A, a specific cytochrome P-450) that breaks down tocotrienols/tocopherols, thereby, allowing the build-up of tissue concentrations of tocotrienols/tocopherols in the body. Tocotrienols in particular are potent compounds and elevating cellular concentrations of these agents would produce even more significant results.

Besides all these, sesame lignans have other important benefits, (both alone and in combination with other agents), such as raising tissue and serum levels of biological antioxidants, delivering significant anti-inflammatory power, inhibition of LDL oxidation, stimulation of fatty acid oxidation, inhibition of free radical lipid peroxidation in fish oil supplements by free radicals, and so on.

If you are not currently supplementing with sesame lignans, and are not currently taking an arachidonic-acid supplement, sesame lignans may be worth considering.
