Quick answer
1 tablespoon (medium) of Black Grape Seed Powder (8 g) has 28 calories. That works out to 350 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.4 g of carbs, 0.9 g of protein, 1.1 g of fat and 3 g of fiber. Its 0.2 mg of Manganese covers 7% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 10 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
What is Black Grape Seed Powder?
Black Grape Seed Powder is made by grinding the seeds of black grapes into a fine, dark powder. Unlike grape flesh, it is not sweet; its flavour is earthy and distinctly astringent, with a slight bitterness. It is generally used as an ingredient rather than eaten on its own, stirred into foods or drinks in a small amount.
You can mix it into yoghurt, porridge, smoothies or baking, as people do in various grape-growing cuisines and in everyday kitchens worldwide. It is notably high in fibre, with 38 g per 100 g, so a little goes a long way. Its robust taste pairs well with naturally sweet ingredients such as banana or berries; start with a small spoonful if you are new to it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Black Grape Seed Powder
What is black grape seed powder used for?
Black grape seed powder is used to add ground grape seeds, including their polyphenols and fibre, to foods. It contains antioxidant compounds, but it has not been shown to prevent or treat disease.
How do you use black grape seed powder?
Stir black grape seed powder into yogurt, oatmeal, or a smoothie. Its taste is usually earthy and bitter, so mixing a small amount into a strongly flavoured food can make it easier to enjoy.
Is black grape seed powder the same as grape seed extract?
No. Black grape seed powder is ground seed, while grape seed extract is processed to concentrate selected compounds. Their composition and serving amounts can differ, so they should not be treated as interchangeable.
Can you eat black grape seed powder raw?
Yes, black grape seed powder can be eaten without cooking. Mix it into a moist food or drink rather than swallowing a spoonful of dry powder, which can be unpleasant and difficult to manage.
How much black grape seed powder should you take a day?
There is no established daily dose for black grape seed powder. Follow the serving directions on its package rather than assuming that a larger amount will provide greater benefits.
Does black grape seed powder help with weight loss?
No, black grape seed powder does not cause weight loss on its own. Its fibre may contribute to fullness when added to food, but it is not a substitute for an overall eating pattern that supports your goals.
What does black grape seed powder taste like?
Black grape seed powder typically tastes earthy, bitter, and slightly astringent, rather than sweet like grapes. It blends more easily into yogurt, cocoa, or a smoothie than into plain water.
How should you store black grape seed powder?
Keep black grape seed powder in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Close the package promptly after use to limit moisture exposure and help preserve its quality.
Can black grape seed powder cause side effects?
Yes, large amounts of black grape seed powder may cause digestive discomfort, such as gas or bloating, partly because it contains fibre. Reduce the amount or stop using it if symptoms occur.
Can you take black grape seed powder with blood-thinning medication?
The interaction between black grape seed powder and medicines has not been well studied, and grape seed products may affect clotting. If you take blood thinners or are preparing for surgery, ask your doctor before using it.
