Grapefruit essential oil is a potent extract derived from the Citrus paradisi grapefruit plant.
Grapefruit essential oil helps everything from reducing blood pressure and providing stress relief to treating and protecting your skin. It’s extracted by cold-pressing glands in the fruit’s peel. Also known as Citrus paradisi, grapefruit essential oil has many medicinal benefits. It’s been used in topical ointments and skin creams, as well as in aromatherapy, for thousands of years.
The grapefruit is a hybrid cross between sweet oranges and pomelo. It originated in Asia and was taken to the Caribbean by Europeans in the 1800s. Grapefruit essential oil is more expensive than other essential oils because it’s harder to extract than from other citrus fruits.
Essential oils contain strong concentrations of the smells and flavors of the plants and fruits from which they’re extracted.

Grapefruit oil is naturally high in antioxidants and phytochemicals that reduce oxidative stress and disease-causing inflammation. Many of grapefruit essential oil’s benefits are due to one of its main constituents called limonene (which makes up about 88 percent to 95 percent of the oil). Limonene is known to be a tumor-fighting, cancer-preventative phytochemical that protects DNA and cells from damage.
