Sell grape seed oil

Description

Grape seed oil is a type of plant oil that can be used for cooking. Grape seed oil can be used for baking, sauteing, stir-frying or as a base for salad dressing. Some benefits of cooking with grape seed oil include its high smoke point and its light, neutral taste. Additionally, grape seed oil is rich in vitamins and healthy fats, which makes it a healthier alternative to traditional cooking oils.
Omega*6 Fatty Acid Health Benefits
Grape seed cooking oil contains a high amount of omega*6 fatty acids, in the form of linoleic acid, as well as smaller amounts of omega*3 and omega*9 fatty acids. Omega*6 is an essential nutrient that you need to get from food as the body cannot make it. According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, omega*6 fatty acids may be useful for numerous health conditions, including: diabetic neuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, allergies, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, breast cancer, eczema, high blood pressure, menopausal symptoms, mastalgia, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis and premenstrual syndrome.
 
Antioxidant Effects
Grape seed oil is rich in antioxidant vitamins E, C and beta carotene. The health benefits conferred by eating antioxidant-rich foods are many. Antioxidants protect your body from free radicals *- substances that can harm cells, organs and other tissues. Antioxidants may help prevent certain conditions associated with aging, including cancer and heart disease. The antioxidant vitamins in grape seed oil also serve other important functions. Vitamin E is needed for the formation of red blood cells and it may also help the heart, according to MedlinePlus. Vitamin C serves numerous functions including collagen synthesis, metabolic functions and disease prevention. Beta carotene, also an antioxidant, may promote eye health.
Heart Benefits of Cooking with Polyunsaturated Fats
Grape seed oil is a healthy alternative to traditional cooking oils such as butter or margarine. Grape seed oil is rich in polyunsaturated fat that improve blood cholesterol levels, which can decrease your risk of heart disease. Polyunsaturated fats found in plant oils like grape seed oil may also help prevent diabetes, says MayoClinic.com. In contrast, foods cooked in oils high in saturated fat or trans fat actually raise your blood cholesterol levels and may increase your risk of developing heart disease and diabetes. Olive oil is another example of a heart-healthy cooking oil, but grape seed oil may be preferable to olive oil in some cases as it can withstand higher cooking temperatures.
Considerations
Grape seed oil is not to be confused with grape seed extract, which is sold commercially in the form of nutritional supplements. While grape seed oil and grape seed extract contain many of the same substances, such as vitamin E and linoleic acid, grape seed extract is a different and more concentrated formulation of grape seed, and it is therefore associated with different health effects and risks than grape seed oil. For example, grape seed extract is rich in substances called procyanidins, which may provide antioxidant effects but may also act as a blood thinner, potentially posing a drug interaction risk for people taking blood-thinning medications, according to UMMC. However, grape seed oil contains only small amounts of procyanidins and therefore does not carry the same potential drug interaction risk as grape seed extract.
