Grapeseed oil for a yeast-free diet

Have you ever heard of grapeseed oil? Grapeseed oil is fairly new to me and I just started using it in my cooking without yeast. Although not as common as other oils many of us use, such as vegetable, canola, and olive, the use of grapeseed oil has gained popularity in recent years, especially in health food circles. I first came across grapeseed oil as a recommendation in one of my reference books on yeast-free diets. The book recommended adding the oil to a yeast-free diet because it is a very rich source of linoleic acid. Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid that the body needs to function properly. It is not something that the body produces on its own, so the only way to obtain adequate amounts is by ingesting it. Although some research suggests that linoleic acid may slow the growth of Candida albicans, there are additional benefits to consuming grape seed oil for those of us who follow a yeast-free diet to treat yeast infections.

It is these other health benefits that the high levels of linoleic acid found in grape seed oil produce that are of particular importance to those of us who suffer from yeast infections. Effective candida treatment is a multifaceted approach that includes reducing the number of Candida albicans through the introduction of antifungals, restoring the health of the body so that you can effectively keep Candida ablicans under control, and modifying your diet so that let’s not keep feeding the Candida. Increasing your intake of linoleic acid helps your body to function more efficiently and thus gives you a much better chance of being able to handle yeast infection.

Adding grapeseed oil to a yeast-free diet will contribute to the general health of the yeast sufferer. Research suggests that grapeseed oil can lower bad cholesterol levels and increase good cholesterol. It has been shown to improve circulatory health. The high levels of vitamin E found in the oil have made it well known and widely used in skin care. The high levels of antioxidants found in the oil help protect the body against free radical damage and strengthen the immune system. It has also been indicated to prevent and relieve the symptoms of arthritis.

Grapeseed oil has a very neutral taste which is why it can be used in so many recipes. It also has a high smoke point so it can be used for frying. You can try using it in your homemade dressings, mayonnaise, or marinades. It’s hard to find sometimes, but if you can’t find it at your local grocery store, chances are you’ll find it at the health food store.
