Guest guest Posted February 3, 2001 Report Share Posted February 3, 2001 Hi Debbie: I know they are different things, that's why I posted it seperately. I thought the group might like to know the benefit of the oil also. But thank you for pointing it out for everyone who may not know the difference. Have a great weekend Christel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 3, 2001 Report Share Posted February 3, 2001 Grapeseed oil and grapeFRUIT seed oil are very different things. Be sure of what you are taking and for what.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2001 Report Share Posted February 12, 2001 What about Grapeseed extract? Does anybody know if this would have the same effect as Grapeseed oil? article below: Supplemental Updates: Grapeseed Oil For Lowering Ldl And Raising HDL How would you like to raise your HDL and lower your LDL with almost every meal you consume? You don't have to remember to take it and you don't have to measure amounts: it's a food you would normally use on a daily basis. Any health researcher will tell you that it's hard to come by a product, especially an everyday household oil, that both raises HDL and lowers LDL. Grapeseed oil, brand new on the American scene, does just that. Dr. Nash, research cardiologist at the SUNY Science Center in New York, published a study in Arteriosclerosis, revealing the beneficial HDL-effect of grapeseed oil. The research shows that just one ounce daily is all that is necessary for this beneficial outcome. According to both the Helsinki and Framingham Heart Studies performed on thousands of patients over several years, each percentage increase in HDL affects a very significant decrease in the incidence of cardiac events. As a bonus, triglycerides also decrease. A second report recently confirmed Nash's findings, adding that grapeseed oil reduced LDL in just three weeks. To the best of current knowledge, grapeseed oil, a high linoleic product, is the only food known to raise HDL and lower LDL. Linoleic acid is one of two essential fatty acids that you cannot manufacture yourself - you must eat it! You may know linoleic acid as Omega 6. Studies indicate that linoleic is sadly deficient in our diets. Grapeseed oil is 76-percent linoleic acid! Low levels of HDL are also related to impotence. In fact, the results of the Massachusetts Male Aging Study show that as HDL levels decrease, the probability of impotence increases. GRAPESEED OIL IS THE ONLY FOOD KNOWN TO RAISE HDL AND LOWER LDL. Grapeseed oil also: reduces platelet aggregation (that is, it prevents cells from sticking together, which causes processes leading to heart disease); helps to prevent hypertension caused by sodium excess; helps to normalize lesions occurring from obesity and diabetes Grapeseed oil is now available for all forms of cooking and is also ideal for salad dressings and mayonnaise. It has no fatty after taste and brings out the flavor of food, so it can be used for anything from an everyday tuna salad to delicate culinary party preparations. It has a non-greasy, slightly nutty flavor and will not cloud when chilled. When used for regular or deep frying at normal temperatures, its unusually- high smoke point, over 485 degrees F, means no smoking, no splattering, no burnt taste. Best of all, there is no conversion to the harmful trans-fatty acids as with other oils. Naturally high in vitamin E, maximum benefit can be obtained by using it raw. The presence of vitamin E also graces grapeseed oil with a shelf life of at least two years. Editor's note: Our research shows that grapeseed oil is best for heart-health. Olive oil rates next.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2001 Report Share Posted February 13, 2001 Grapeseed oil is a supermarket item, albeit a supermarket in a somewhat upscale neighborhood carrying " gourmet " foods.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 I've seen it at Fresh Fields Grocery store. Don't know if they are all over the country but I imagine a local-type health store would have it.
