| Grape seed oil – elixir of life? | |
 I’ve only
recently become aware of the existence of grape seed oil, yet it has been
used in European countries for centuries. From information researched on the
internet, it seems that the use of this product could be extremely beneficial
to the human body. The properties that are so good for you in red wine, can
be found in abundance at the source. Apparently the only reason it has not
become more widely used, is that the oil yield from grape seeds is much lower
than from other oil seeds.
Cold-pressed
grape seed oil is very high in anti-oxidant values, much higher than either
Vitamin C, or E. It is very high in Omega 6 and 9 (minimum 84% per volume).
It also contains Omega 3 and natural chlorophyll. It decreases LDL
cholesterol levels in the blood, and at the same time increases HDL
cholesterol – thereby preventing heart disease. It causes atrophied arteries
to become supple, which prevents high blood pressure. Regular use of only
one teaspoon per day can prevent certain kinds of cancer, i.e. lung cancer,
breast cancer, prostate cancer and skin cancer. It is said to even decrease
the existence of cancer cells by up to 40%.
Grape seed
oil is used extensively in cosmetic products, as it repairs damaged skin
cells and has regenerative properties that can even heal stretch marks. And
the list goes on…
I was
slightly sceptical when I read all this, but decided to try it out as a
moisturiser on my face and body – with wonderful effect. A friend with high
blood cholesterol tried it, and found after 12 weeks that her blood
cholesterol levels had dropped from above 8 to 4.9!
If you
have had positive (or negative) experiences with grape seed oil that you
would like to share, please do. From my side, I want to encourage everyone
to start using this amazing product and reap the benefits of a healthier body
in no time at all.
