Black sesame seeds can generally be consumed by cooking them into congee, grinding them into powder, or eating them dry—methods that may help manage premature graying of hair. They can also be used in conjunction with medicinal treatments. Sesame seeds are rich in fats and proteins and offer benefits such as promoting gastric health, darkening hair, and enhancing skin appearance. When cooked into congee with japonica rice and goji berries, they may assist in managing premature graying. Alternatively, black sesame seeds can be eaten dry, or roasted and ground into powder; one tablespoon each morning and evening can be mixed with warm water for oral administration.
