I thought that grape seed oil is a poor source of vitamin E. Can you
provide a refence for the vitamin E content of an unfortified grape seed
oil? And why do you think that grape seed oil would be good for food
preparation? It has a high content of polyunsatured fatty acids.
AFAIK, wheat germ oil is the best natural source of vitamin E.
