“Smarter” Grapes

The Muscadine grape is causing a buzz because scientists have found they are loaded with more healthy compounds than other much-touted foods such as blueberries, green tea and red wine.        

Muscadine grapes and their seeds are a source of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. The seeds are believed to help lower cholesterol, control blood sugar, alleviate arthritis, help erectile dysfunction and control migraines. Muscadine grapes not only have 10 times the antioxidants of blueberries and cranberries, they also contain unique combinations of other phenolic compounds, remarkable anti-inflammatory properties and combinations of more than 100 nutraceuticals not found anywhere else, Muscadine seeds also have been found to have an effect on PSA levels (prostate specific antigens, an indicator of prostate cancer) and menopause, too.

    People are taking muscadine grape seeds for their medical benefits and to look and feel younger.   
 
    North Carolina-based Nature's Pearl Corp. cultivates muscadine grapes and sells an all-natural dietary supplement in capsule form called, “The Smarter Grape.” Visit naturespearlproducts.com or call 877.998.2386.
