Grapeseed Oil holds a wealth of health, medical, and beauty benefits. This powerful vegetable oil is the byproduct of the winemaking process. Once the grapes are pressed for wine, the grape seeds are left behind, making them available to extract Grapeseed Oil from. The Oil is commonly extracted by crushing the seeds and using a solvent to draw the oil out.
