We are shining the light on Grape seed oil today. Sounds exotic? ( yes, we know)
Grapeseed oil is a byproduct of winemaking and is also an alternative to the regular cooking oils. Grapeseed oil is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids and are beneficial to the heart as it reduces cholesterol and reduces the risk of heart disease.
Another health benefit is the abundance of vitamin E in Grapeseed oil. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps to protect the cells from damaging free radicals that are likely to cause heart disease and other chronic disease.
