Women need more than macros. We also need minerals.
The Mineral Gap
1 in 4 women are iron-deficient. Nearly half don't meet their daily magnesium needs. Fewer than 1 in 10 get enough fiber. And 1 in 8 Americans is at risk for zinc deficiency.
The snack industry rarely addresses this.
Most snack foods are built around protein or low calories.
SESA was built around the nutrients women are most likely to miss.
SESA provides what your body needs in a satisfying snack
Made with eight simple ingredients, carefully chosen
-
Black Sesame
Learn moreThe hero. Multiple essential minerals and rarely found sesamin in one seed, for antioxidant defense, hormone balance, and liver health. The most nutritionally dense seed you're probably not eating.
-
Pumpkin Seeds
More magnesium and zinc. Satisfying crunch with actual nutritional purpose.
-
Chia Seeds
Plant omega-3. Plus fiber that keeps blood sugar steady — no spike, no crash.
-
White Sesame
Lighter flavor balance. More calcium and healthy fat.
-
Dried Goji Berry
Vitamin C — not for decoration. It helps your body actually absorb the plant iron in every other ingredient.
-
Ground Flaxseed
The richest plant source of lignans — compounds that support hormone balance & estrogen metabolism. Plus ALA omega-3 and fiber
-
Honey
The only sweetener. 3g added sugar per serving. Enough to make it feel like a treat.
-
Brown Rice Syrup
A clean binder with a neutral flavor. No refined sugar. Pairs with honey to create the crunch
The nutrients most women are missing. In every serving.
With flavor and texture you will fall in love with
What it tastes like
Toasty. Rich. Nutty.
Sweetened just enough with raw honey that it feels like a treat — not a healthy compromise.
The crunch is dense and satisfying. You will reach for a second piece before finishing the first.
The best nutrition is the kind you love to eat
-
With your coffee or matcha
A handful of SESA alongside your coffee or matcha. Mineral-dense, low sugar, genuinely satisfying — not a bar you force down for the nutrients.
-
The 3pm pick-me-up
When the slump hits, magnesium and fiber do more than another shot of caffeine. SESA is the snack that works.
-
After movement
Calcium, magnesium, zinc, and iron in one snack. No protein powder required. Just seeds, honey, and the nutrition your body needs.
Why a food scientist built a snack brand
After more than 15 years in food science research, corporate R&D, and strategy, I wanted to create food differently — with real nourishment at the center.
I kept coming back to black sesame, a deeply nourishing ingredient East Asian women have eaten for generations.
So I created SESA: thoughtfully made snacks with just eight intentional ingredients, designed for women who want nourishment that still tastes genuinely good.
