Q: I have heard people mention Grapeseed oil. What is the buzz about?
A: Tell anyone you know who is interested in grapeseed oil that they have probably only gotten part of the story. Perhaps you should tell them about MacNut Oil and this web site. As mentioned above under smoke point, grapeseed oil has is very high in omega-6 fatty acids. We already get too much omega-6 fatty acids in our diets - perhaps 20 times as much as our ancestors did. Using grapeseed oil will only increase that toxic burden. Also, grapeseed oil has only about 20% monounsaturated fats, the ones that give the Mediterranean diet its heart-healthy reputation.
