This common fruit contains more than 1,600 vehicles that enhance brain, heart and bowel health

As mentioned in the article, the term “Superfood” is a common word without official definition or fixed criteria. Usually, the high foods prevailing are part of the Mediterranean diet and generally rich in natural plants that are beneficial to a person’s health. Pezzuto treats the broader theme of super foods in detail, then makes the scientific condition of the grapes, noting that fresh grapes have been neglected in this square and often not included with the mention of other similar foods, such as berries.

Grapes are a natural source of more than 1,600 compounds, including antioxidants and other polyphenols such as flavonoids, anthocyanidine, catekin, phenolic acids, risavarrol, and more. Polyphenols are attributed to the health benefits of grapes, through antioxidants and the effect of cellular processes. It is the whole grape and a unique matrix of these compounds that create biological effects, and not a single component.

More than sixty studies have been published by the peacocks in scientific literature on grapes and health. The role of grapes on cardiovascular health is firm, including enhancing relaxation in the blood vessels and healthy blood circulation, as well as adjusting cholesterol levels. Clinical experiments also show that grapes support brain health (help in maintaining healthy brain metabolism and beneficial effects on perception), skin health (reinforced resistance to ultraviolet radiation and DNA damage in skin cells), intestinal health (microbiomebum modification and intestinal diversity), and eye health (network effect by increasing optical yellow). Finally, in the world of food – it turns out that studying foods on genetic expression in the body – grape consumption positively changes genetic expression in related body systems. Pezzuto suggests that these activities at the genetic level are likely to be the driving force behind the health benefits of grapes.

“Dr. Bezoto shows that based on science, grapes are actually from super foods, and it must be recognized in this way,” said Ian Limay, Chairman of the California Grapes Committee.
