Can I take sesame supplements if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

Sesame products are likely safe for food uses when taken by mouth in amounts normally found in food by individuals who have no allergy or sensitivity to sesame or any of its constituents. Sesame is not recommended for medicinal purposes in pregnant or breastfeeding women, due to a lack of available scientific evidence.
