Why Salute Santé! Cold Pressed Grapeseed Oil is so Healthy
100% UPCYCLED FRUIT OIL
Grapeseed Oil is from a fruit – the grape – our botanical source, which makes us a fruit oil like olive and avocado, except our oil is 100% UPCYCLED from winery pomace (seeds, skins and stems), an existing resource, and is ZERO WASTE. Unlike big AG, no seeds are planted.
HEART HEALTHY
Studies show grapeseed oil may be the only food known to significantly raise HDL the “good cholesterol”; significantly lower LDL the “bad” cholesterol and lower triglycerides, which may reduce the risk of heart disease and impotence.
LOW IN SATURATED FATS
Only 9% saturated fat. Significantly lower than Olive oil, Sunflower oil, Peanut oil, Corn oil and Soybean oil.
HIGH CONCENTRATION OF VITAMIN E AND PROANTHOCYANIDIN (OPC)
Grapeseed oil contains 60-120mg of vitamin E per 100g, making it a significant source of vitamin E and OPC’s. OPC’s are now a well-known antioxidant and studies indicate its potency to be 50 to 80 times stronger than Vitamin E.
