Scientists have measured the health properties of grapes and found that they contain the vitamins A, B and C, as well as thirteen minerals essential to human life.
Concord grape concentrate contains anthocyanins, a class of flavonoids that give intense colour to many fruits and vegetables. In addition, concord grapes contain resveratrol, which demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties.
Red grape skin extract contains resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant that exhibits anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, red grapes contain anthocyanins, which offer an array of health-promoting benefits such as antioxidant protection and cardio-protective effects.
Red grape seed extract is a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from premature ageing, disease and decay. Grape seeds contain a class of naturally occurring compounds known as proanthocyanidins, which have been shown in scientific studies to have antioxidant power that is 20 times greater than vitamin E and 50 times greater than vitamin C. Other studies have shown that grape seed proanthocyanidins help protect the body from sun damage, enhance vision, improve flexibility in joints, arteries and body tissues such as the heart, and improve blood circulation by strengthening capillaries, veins and arteries. |
