The same grapes that go into your favorite wines also provide another great product – grapeseed oil. As grapes are pressed into wine, the seeds are extracted as a by-product. But these seeds can then be pressed to yield a versatile oil with multiple contributions to your health and well-being.
These benefits were recently confirmed in a report from the National Institutes of Health, which found grapeseed oil had antioxidant properties which could help prevent cancer, as well as anti-inflammatory properties that could help control chronic infections and reduce the inflammation of certain wounds and illnesses. The findings in this report validate what fans of grapeseed oil have long said – that it’s a great addition to both your diet and your wellness care.
And now quality manufacturers in the US can offer grapeseed oil at good prices, making it affordable for use in any number of ways in your home without breaking the bank.
So, what are these potential benefits of using grapeseed oil? Well, here are four good ways you can use it:
IN THE KITCHEN
Grapeseed oil is a versatile oil for the kitchen and contributes the essential fatty acid linoleic acid as well as other nutrients. Be aware, however, that the heat generated in the expeller-pressing process can rob oils of their antioxidant properties and nutrients. Make sure your grape seed oil is cold-pressed to get its full benefit.
As a Salad Dressing
Our lemon grapeseed oil has vitamin E and omega-6 fatty acids. And the citrus zing of the lemon, when the oil is whisked with balsamic vinegar, makes for a delicious, ready-made dressing base – add your favorite herbs and spices to create homemade dressings that stand on par with ones from the store.
As a Cooking Oil
With its high smoke point, grape seed oil is excellent for stir-frying or sauteing. Use it with zucchini, onions, mushrooms, peppers and more – and toss in your favorite protein to make a quick, flavorful dish.
ON YOUR SKIN
The linoleic acid in grapeseed oil helps moisture stay locked in. And it’s an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, shielding your skin from the effects of aging and potentially mitigating the effects of eczema, dermatitis, and other inflammatory skin disorders
For Acne
You thought you left acne behind with your teen years, but not so. The clogged pores leading to acne can happen anytime your skin isn’t getting what it needs. Fortunately, linoleic acid decreases clogged pores and keeps your skin hydrated and healthy, letting you leave acne in the past.
To Diminish Scars
A 2016 report on the use of grapeseed oil, along with sesame and fenugreek oils, found that the antioxidant properties of the oil along with ingredients like vitamin E and linoleic acid not only helped wounds heal faster, but could also cause fading of scars. While the scars will not completely disappear, grapeseed oil regularly can make them less noticeable.
For Protection
Grapeseed oil is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants. protecting your skin from damaging free radicals which leave you with the signs of aging. Daily use can firm up skin and roll back damage like spots and scars.
For Reinforcing your Skin
The linoleic acid in grapeseed oil strengthens your skin’s natural barrier, keeping moisture in and toxins out.
FOR HEALTHY HAIR
Grapeseed oil also has properties that make it a fantastic addition to your hair care routine.
To Add Moisture without Oil or Fragrance
The natural conditioning agents in grapeseed oil can maintain your hair’s natural, vibrant shine. As one of the lightest plant oils, grapeseed oil will add moisture without making your hair feel heavy or oily. Since grapeseed oil is scent-free, you can blend with essential oils of your choice for a weekly hot oil treatment.
To Smooth Frizz
To keep frizz under control, dilute grapeseed oil with water in a spray bottle. Just a spritz or two will tame frizzy, fly-away in a flash.
FOR RELAXATION
In this hectic modern life, self-care is important, but there isn’t always time (or money) to visit a spa. No problem – just blend grapeseed oil with your favorite scents and give yourself a relaxing self-massage for a relaxation experience on par with a professional spa.
