Grape´s Benefits for Health and Beauty

The grape is a fruit that is claimed to be first cultivated in Asia 70,000 years ago, it has always been revered for producing musts and wines by every known culture.

Grapes provide sensory elements, its sweet taste, texture, how refreshing they are... but there are a lot more benefits inside this little fruit, some of them are very precious to our health and beauty.

Beneficial health components:

Resveratrol is a flavonoid present in every part of the fruit, recent studies suggest that this molecule is able to slow the aging process and to reduce the chances of suffering a heart attack because it increases the production of nitric acid (which dilates blood vessels and lowers the activity of a hormone which causes the vessel constriction). It is also a powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals with its subsequent protective role against prostate, breast and colon cancer.

Antioxidants Anthocyanins are anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antimicrobial and even anti-cancer. Flavonoids are also antioxidants present in grapes whose benefit lies in reducing the damage produced by free radicals in the eye, helping to prevent the development of cataracts.

Grapes has also influence on the levels of cholesterol because of its content in sapponins and pterostilbene which reduce the amount of cholesterol absorbed in the intestine.

Beneficial components to the skin:

Organic acids present in grapes as tartaric or malic, have the ability to remove dead skin cells and help promoting its regeneration. The result is a smooth and luminous skin.

Not only vitamin C is found in the fruit of the vine, but also soluble fat vitamins like A, K and E and several vitamins of the B group contribute to cellular health of the skin giving it freshness and health.
