             "Tahini is an excellent source of coppermanganese and the amino acid methionine. Tahini is a source of the healthy fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6.It made from raw sesame seeds is lower in fat than tahini made from roasted seeds.Tahini's relatively high levels of calcium and protein make it a useful addition to vegetarian and vegan diets, as well as to raw food diets when eaten in its unroasted form. Compared to peanut butter, tahini has higher levels of fiber and calcium and lower levels of sugar and saturated fats".
