What Is Gingelly Oil in Kannada, and How Is It Used for Health? - #12127
I’ve heard a lot about gingelly oil (also known as sesame oil), but I want to know more about its uses and benefits, especially in the context of Kannada traditions. What is gingelly oil in Kannada, and how is it used in Ayurvedic medicine? From what I understand, gingelly oil has nourishing, heating, and anti-inflammatory properties. How does it help with conditions like joint pain, muscle soreness, and skin problems? How is gingelly oil used in Kannada medicine—should it be applied as an oil for massages, consumed for internal health, or used in Panchakarma treatments? I’ve also heard that gingelly oil is beneficial for improving hair health. How does it support hair growth, reduce dandruff, and promote scalp health? Lastly, are there any side effects or precautions to consider when using gingelly oil, particularly for people with sensitive skin or allergies?
