Grapeseed vegetable oil is obtained by cold pressing the seed of the botanical species Vitis vinifera L., which belongs to the Vitaceae family.
It is a semi-woody or climbing plant that, when allowed to grow freely, can reach over 30 meters, but, due to human intervention through annual pruning, it is typically reduced to a small shrub of about 1 meter. Its fruit, the grape, is edible and serves as raw material for the production of wine and other alcoholic beverages. Sometimes, the vine is referred to as “parra”—especially the variety whose product is table grapes—although in horticulture, “parral” or “parra” refers to a system used for training grapevines to grow upward, particularly for carefully cultivated specimens, as their grapes are intended for fresh consumption.
Benefits
Benefits of Grapeseed Vegetable Oil:
Heart Diseases: Grape seed extract contains proanthocyanidins that strengthen blood vessels, stabilize collagen and elastin, and maintain the integrity of connective tissue, helping protect organs, joints, and muscles.
Hemorrhoids: Its strengthening effect on blood vessels can prevent and treat hemorrhoids and chronic venous insufficiency, a condition in which weakened veins cause varicose veins, spider veins, and sores in the legs.
Cholesterol: Although not detailed in the original text, grape seed oil may also help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
Cancer: Resveratrol, a polyphenol in the extract, can inhibit the growth and division of cancer cells and block enzymes that prolong the life of certain cancer cells.
Fibromyalgia: With its antioxidant power, grape seed extract can reduce damage associated with fibromyalgia, protecting muscle cells from oxidative stress.
Endometriosis: The extract can relieve pain and inflammation caused by endometriosis by blocking the release of prostaglandins, and its antioxidant properties protect cells from free radical damage, even in the brain.
Skin Diseases: It helps maintain skin health by protecting collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, and is useful in treating psoriasis and eczema. Its flavonoids can also reduce allergic reactions.
Allergy Symptoms: As a natural antihistamine, it can control sneezing, congestion, and other allergy symptoms.
Hair Growth: It may counteract dihydrotestosterone (DHT), promoting the growth of healthy hair.
