Seeds from grapes are rich in biologically active compounds and can be used as a primary platform for natural extracts, innovative foods, medicines, and cosmetics. This paper focuses on the phytochemical composition, manufacturing processes, and health benefits of various grape seed oils extracted using different methods. However, the results vary across studies due to different factors and measurement units, making the communication of results challenging. The main topics covered are grape seed oil's lipophilic fatty acids, tocopherols, and phytosterols. In addition, affordable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly extraction methods should be developed to improve the oil's quality and biological activity for the management of various diseases.
Seeds' abundant biologically active compounds make them a suitable primary platform for the production of natural extracts, innovative foods, medicines, and cosmetics. High levels of industrial and agricultural residues and byproducts are generated during the processing of grapes, although some parts can also be repurposed. This paper examines the phytochemical composition, manufacturing processes, and health-improving attributes of many varieties of grape oil derived using various extraction methods. Since the results are influenced by a range of factors, they are expressed differently among studies, and the researchers employ a variety of measuring units, making it difficult to convey the results. The primary topics covered in most papers are grape seed oil's lipophilic fatty acids, tocopherols, and phytosterols. In addition, new methods for extracting grape seed oil should therefore be designed; these methods must be affordable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly in order to increase the oil's quality by extracting bioactive components and thereby increasing its biological activity in order to become part of the overall management of multiple diseases.
