10 Benefits of Grape Seed Extract, Based on Science

Grape seed extract (GSE) is a dietary supplement made by removing, drying, and pulverizing the bitter-tasting seeds of grapes.

Grape seeds are rich in antioxidants, including phenolic acids, anthocyanins, flavonoids, and oligomeric proanthocyanidin complexes (OPCs).

In fact, GSE is one of the best-known sources of proanthocyanidins (1Trusted Source, 2Trusted Source).

Due to its high antioxidant content, GSE can help prevent disease and protect against oxidative stress, tissue damage, and inflammation (3Trusted Source).

Note that grape seed extract and grapefruit seed extract are both marketed as supplements and abbreviated by the acronym GSE. This article discusses grape seed extract.

Here are 10 health benefits of grape seed extract, all based on science.

1) Can reduce blood pressure
2) Can improve blood flow
3) Could reduce oxidative damage
4) May improve collagen levels and bone strength
5) Supports your brain as it ages
6) Can improve kidney function
7) Can inhibit infectious growth
8. May reduce cancer risk
9) May protect your liver
10) Enhances wound healing and appearance

APEKTADO KA BA NITONG NAKARAANG CORONA VIRUS (COVID) CRISIS?

ANO BA ANG GUSTO MONG GAWIN PARA MAKAAHON TAYO SA CRISIS?

Unti-unti nang nagbubukas ang ekonomiya ng mga bansa, at unti-unti na ring nararamdaman ang pagbangon lalung-lalo na ang mga mayayamang bansa.

Pero, paano ba ang Pilipinas? Paano tayo na isang mahirap na bansa lamang? Nararamdaman mo na ba ang pagbangon ng ekonomiya? May pagbabago na ba sa buhay mo?

Sa kasagsagan ng pandemya, marami sa atin ang nawalan ng mga mahal sa buhay dahil tinamaan ng COVID: ama, ina, kapatid, anak, kamag-anak, kaibigan, at iba pa. Mas masakit sa atin kung ang mga bread-winner ng pamilya ang nawala, habang may mga anak at kapatid tayong nag-aaral pa at kailangan pa ng gabay at pinansyal na tulong.

During those deepest part of our lives, ang nasabi lang natin ay “ipasa Diyos na lang natin ang lahat. Bahala na si Lord!”.

Dahil sa nakaraang pandemya, maraming negosyo ang nagsara, at marami ang nawalan ng trabaho o hanap-buhay. Dahil sa inflation at pagtaas ng krudo at gas, nagmahal ang transportasyon at mga bilihin. Maraming pamilyang Pilipino ang nakaramdam ng pagbaba ng antas ng kanilang buhay.

BUMANGON TAYO! MAGTULUNGAN TAYONG MAKABANGON! PARA SA KINABUKASAN!

7) Maiwasan ang pamamaga ng mga kasu-kasuan (joints) na nagiging sanhi ng pananakit ng ating katawan at mga buto (Arthritis/Rayuma)

8. Makatulong sa ating tinatawag na Gastro-intestinal Health, ang kalusugan ng ating tiyan, bituka, ng ating panunaw (metabolism), at iba pang parte sa loob ng ating katawan na nauugnay dito.

9) Panatiliing malusog at bata ang ating mga katawan, malabanan ang madaling pagtanda (Anti-Aging), para makaiwas na rin sa mga sakit

10) Panatiliin ang ating mental health. Halimbawa: maiwasan ang pagkakaroon o paglala ng sakit na alzheimer’s, ( pagiging malilimutin, pagkalito, pagbabago sa ugali, at kung malala na ay kinakakakitaan ng kawalan ng kontrol sa galaw ng katawan)

Hindi kaila sa ating lahat na kasunod ng pandemya, marami sa atin ang nagsimulang magbigay halaga sa ating mga kalusugan at pangangatawan.

Marami rin ang nakaramdam ng takot na sa isang iglap pwede palang mawala ang ating mga mahal sa buhay.

MUSCADINE GRAPES : ANTI-COVID

Chemical Compounds in Foods Can Inhibit a Key SARS-CoV-2 Enzyme

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

De-Yu Xie dxie@ncsu.edu/ Mick Kulikowski mjkuliko@ncsu.edu

Chemical compounds in foods or beverages like green tea, MUSCADINE GRAPES and dark chocolate can bind to and block the function of a particular enzyme, or protease, in the SARS-CoV-2 virus, according to a new study by plant biologists at North Carolina State University.

Proteases are important to the health and viability of cells and viruses, says De-Yu Xie, professor of plant and microbial biology at NC State and the corresponding author of the study. If proteases are inhibited, cells cannot perform many important functions – like replication, for example.

“One of our lab’s focuses is to find nutraceuticals in food or medicinal plants that inhibit either how a virus attaches to human cells or the propagation of a virus in human cells,” Xie said.

In the study, the NC State researchers performed both computer simulations and lab studies showing how the so-called “main protease” (Mpro) in the SARS-CoV-2 virus reacted when confronted with a number of different plant chemical compounds already known for their potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

“Mpro in SARS-CoV-2 is required for the virus to replicate and assemble itself,” Xie said. “If we can inhibit or deactivate this protease, the virus will die.”

MUSCADINE GRAPE ANTI-AGING PROPERTIES

Truly beautiful and healthy skin comes with care from both on the surface inside and proper care of the whole body. For this purpose, the human body uses antioxidants to kill free radicals. But with age, the body produces fewer antioxidants, damaging the skin. Moreover, the skin collagen and micro-capillaries also start damaging with time, decreasing the number of nutrients that get to the skin and resulting in wrinkles and un-youthful skin.

Micro-capillaries are the small blood vessels that interchange the nutrients between blood and tissues. Antioxidants can strengthen these capillaries by keeping them flexible. As muscadine grapes are a rich source of antioxidants, these can be very beneficial in maintaining healthy and youthful-looking skin.

MUSCADINE ON GASTRO-INTESTINAL HEALTH

Grape Extracts May Be Effective Against Harmful Gut Bacteria

Date: March 8, 2009
Source: American Society for Microbiology

Summary: Various grape extracts and their compounds were found to be effective at inhibiting Helicobacter pylori, one of the leading causes of gastritis in humans.

In a new study researchers from Clemson University found various grape extracts and their compounds to be effective at inhibiting Helicobacter pylori, one of the leading causes of gastritis in humans.

H. pylori is the bacterial agent most commonly associated with peptic ulcers, gastritis, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and gastric cancer. Antibiotic therapy has proven effective at providing initial relief, however resistance can develop over time and relapse can occur. Previous studies have examined other natural plant extracts with anti-H. pylori activity such as garlic, broccoli, cranberries and green tea, however, grapes have yet to be evaluated despite being well known for their high levels of antioxidants and polyphenols.

The antibacterial effects of extracts from red, white, black and muscadine grapes as well as the pure compounds resveratrol, ellagic acid, and myricetin were tested for anti-H. pylori activity using agar dilution, laser scanning microscopy and cell proliferation. Following 24 hour treatment, results showed that muscadine grape skin extract had the highest anti-H. pylori effect, followed by muscadine grape synergy and seed extract. Additionally, two of the three compounds, resveratrol and ellagic acid, also inhibited H. pylori.

"In this study, grape extracts and their compounds were effective at inhibiting H. pylori in vitro, with highest efficacy by muscadine grape skin extract," say the researchers.

MUSCADINE GRAPES MAY FIGHT ALZHEIMER'S

by Stepy — October 2, 2015

Muscadine grapes are a species native to the southern part of America, and have been grown since the 16th century. They are very commonly used in fine wines and have shown health benefits.

New research from the Georgetown University Medical Center shows that muscadine grapes may fight Alzheimer’s.

Muscadines are high in a compound called resveratrol, which is an antioxidant that brain protecting benefits. Previous research has shown that resveratrol may slow down the progression of dementias including Alzheimer’s.

One of the reasons why resveratrol is so effective with brain related conditions is because it has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and attack diseases and inflammation at the source.

The latest research on resveratrol shows that it helps stabilize amyloid-beta plaque buildup, which is considered a major risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease.

In the study, half of the participants were given 1,000 mg of resveratrol, while the other half of the participants received a placebo.

As reported by Market Business:

“In patients with Alzheimer’s, amyloid-beta levels decrease in the cerebrospinal fluid, while deposits of the substance increase in the brain, where it becomes insoluble. These insoluble plaques are a hallmark of the disease, which eventually leads to the death of nerve cells in the brain. ‘Somehow, resveratrol is affecting cerebrospinal amyloid levels,’ Dr. R. Scott Turner… told FoxNews.com. ‘We don’t quite fully understand why or how, but [we] think it may be related to sirtuins.’”
In other words, the resveratrol group showed no change in amyloid-beta plaque levels, which is a good sign. Also, the placebo group showed normal progression of the disease.

5 AMAZING BENEFITS OF MUSCADINE GRAPES (VITIS ROTUNDIFOLIA)

Muscadine Grapes (Vitis Rotundifolia) are heart-friendly, low-calorie, and fiber-rich fruits. The cardioprotective, antihyperlipidemic and antioxidant activities of these grapes help to improve heart functions, reduce cholesterol, and prevent coronary artery disease and atherosclerosis. These grapes are also beneficial for hypertensive people, especially people also suffering from hyperlipidemia. They help to regulate blood pressure. Muscadines also enhance non-specific immunity and help to prevent several diseases. Overall, muscadines are healthy fruits.

Phytochemistry (Chemical Constituents)

Muscadine Grapes contain two major polyphenolic constituents Resveratrol and Quercetin. Resveratrol found in these grapes is 6 times more than common grapes. (1)

Gallic acid, catechin, and epicatechin are found seeds. 100 grams seeds contain around 1299.4 mg epicatechin, 558.4 mg catechin, and 6.9 mg gallic acid.

In muscadine skin, quercetin, ellagic acid, kaempferol, myricetin, and trans-resveratrol are found. (For more, tap link below)

Pharmacological Actions

The insoluble dietary fiber in muscadine grapes helps to improve bowel movement. It is responsible for its anti-constipation action.

Ellagic acid is a potent antioxidant found in these grapes. It inhibits oxidation and prevents cell damage.

Ellagic acid also inhibits the cancer cell growth and resveratrol blocks cell cycle of cancer cells. The antioxidant, anticancer, and chemoprevention actions of muscadines help to prevent cancer and stop the growth of cancer cells.

Resveratrol affects mitochondria. It prevents damage to mitochondria and repairs the damaged mitochondria. It helps to improve lifespan. (For more, tap link below)

Medicinal Properties

Anti-atherogenic, Anti-ischemic, Anticancer, Chemoprevention
and Mild antihypertensive (For more, tap link below)

MUSCADINE GRAPES HEALTH BENEFITS

The Health Benefits of Muscadine Grapes are attributed to phytochemicals. Most of these chemical constituents (especially Resveratrol) of muscadines have cardioprotective, antihyperlipidemic, anti-ischemic, anti-thrombotic, anti-atherogenic and mild antihypertensive actions. Muscadines also have antioxidant and anti-aging properties. Muscadine skin has anticancer action and it is likely to prevent cancer. It can also beneficial to inhibit the growth of cancerous cells by inducing apoptosis. Let’s discuss the health benefits of Muscadine Grapes in details:

1) Antioxidant

The phenolic content in Muscadine Grapes is responsible for the potent antioxidant activity. (2)

Due to potent antioxidant activities, these grapes help to prevent cell damage and delay aging. They also decrease the risk of inflammations and prevent heart diseases, memory loss and other chronic diseases.

2) Incomplete evacuation & Constipation

250 grams Muscadine grapes contains around 9.8 grams dietary fiber. (3)

These grapes are also a good source of insoluble fiber content that promotes bowel movement. People having trouble bowel movement or bowel irregularities and feel incomplete evacuation or suffer from chronic constipation can eat muscadine grapes on regular basis.

3) Cancer

Muscadine grapes (Vitis Rotundifolia) have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer actions attributed to their high phenolic and flavonoid content. These phytochemicals inhibit the growth of cancer cells by inducing apoptosis and disrupting abnormal proliferation. (4, 5, 6, 7)

Primarily, ellagic acid and resveratrol are two major compounds found in muscadines that inhibit the growth of cancer cells and block the cancer cell proliferation.

The high dietary fiber in these grapes also helps to prevent colon cancer and gastrointestinal diseases.

Muscadine grape skin extract (MGSE) inhibits the cell growth in prostate cancer. This action is attributed to its antioxidant and antitumor activities. (7, 8)

In conclusion, Muscadine grapes can help to prevent cancer by various mechanisms. They may inhibit cancer cell growth and become beneficial for cancer patients, especially for people suffering from colorectal cancer or prostate cancer, according to present studies.

4) Anti-inflammatory Properties

The ethanol extract of Muscadine grape skin powder reported exhibiting anti-inflammatory properties. (9)

Eating Muscadine grapes can also help to prevent and reduce inflammation, edema, and risk of several inflammatory diseases. Phyto-constituents including resveratrol are mainly responsible for anti-inflammatory properties of these grapes.

The topical application of muscadine grape extracts also helps to reduce local inflammation. (10)

5) Helicobacter Pylori Infection

Muscadine grapes contain quercetin, which is effective against inflammation caused by Helicobacter pylori infection due to its anti-inflammatory potentials. However, it might not be effective for reducing the growth of Helicobacter pylori, but it can help to reduce and prevent inflammation caused by H. pylori infection. (11)

MUSCADINE ON BREAST CANCER PREVENTION

Muscadine Grape Extract Reduces Lung and Liver Metastasis in Mice with Triple Negative Breast Cancer in Association with Changes in the Gut Microbiome (P05-017-19)

Authors: Marianne Collard, Nataleigh Austin, Ann Tallant, Patricia Gallagher

Abstract

Objectives
The goal of this study was to determine if a proprietary muscadine grape seed and skin extract (MGE) inhibits triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) metastasis and alters the gut microbiota.

Results
MGE reduced Ki67 cell positivity in the lungs and livers of mice, indicating reduced metastatic proliferation (9.3 ± 0.9% vs 6.2 ± 0.7% and 5.0 ± 1.5% vs 0.77 ± 0.2% cells, respectively; P < 0.01), and decreased cancer associated fibroblasts in the lungs (5.3 ± 1.0% vs 3.0 ± 0.5% cells; P < 0.05), which are associated with metastasis.

MGE significantly reduced the number (4.7 ± 0.7 vs 2.2 ± 0.4 tumors/field; P < 0.01) and size (1358 ± 48 vs 1121 ± 47 pixels; P < 0.01) of liver metastases, resulting in decreased metastatic tumor burden (6656 ± 1220 vs 3096 ± 644 total area in pixels; P < 0.01). Attenuated TNBC metastasis correlated with MGE-induced changes in gut microbiota. Alpha diversity (4.15 ± 0.10 vs 4.51 ± 0.13 Shannon index; P < 0.05) and the Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio (0.37 ± 0.07 vs 0.76 ± 0.12; P < 0.05) were significantly increased in MGE-treated mice, indicating enhanced microbial richness and increased energy harvest by the gut microbiome. Butyrate-producing bacteria, such as Ruminococcus, Butyricicoccus and Lachnospiraceae, were increased with MGE (P < 0.05) as well as the anti-inflammatory compound butyrate relative to other short-chain fatty acids (25.0 ± 2.7% vs 75.3 ± 15.5%; P < 0.01).

Conclusions
These data show that MGE attenuates TNBC metastasis in association with alterations in the gut microbiome, suggesting that MGE may be an effective treatment against TNBC metastatic progression.

ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES OF MUSCADINE (VITIS ROTUNDIFOLIA)

Abstract
The muscadine grape possesses one of the highest antioxidant levels among fruits; yet, the effect of this fruit on mammalian metabolic systems has not received significant attention. To examine the antiinflammatory properties of the muscadine, grape skins were dried, pulverized, and extracted (10% w/v) with 50% ethanol. The extract was then tested in two different assays: the release of superoxide in phorbol myristate acetate-activated neutrophils and the release of cytokines [tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1beta (IL-beta), and interleukin-6 (IL-6)] by lipopolysaccharide-activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The release of superoxide and cytokines was inhibited by increasing concentrations of the extract. A 1:100 dilution of the extract inhibited superoxide release by approximately 60% while the release of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta was reduced at a dilution of 1:200 by approximately 15 and 90%, respectively (all P < 0.05). The inhibition pattern on the release of IL-6 was similar to that seen with TNF-alpha. In a related in vivo study, rats were fed a diet containing 5% (wt/wt) dried muscadine grape skins for 14 days and then were injected with carrageenan in the foot pad. After 3 h, paw edema was measured and the rats on the grape skin diet had approximately 50% less paw edema than controls (P < 0.05).

These results demonstrate that the muscadine grape skin powder possesses significant in vitro and in vivo antiinflammatory properties.

MUSCADINE ON DIABETES

Glycemic response to muscadine grape components, comparing healthy weight and overweight individuals

Abstract
Currently, 25 million people in the US are diabetic, with an additional 79 million characterized as prediabetic. Antioxidant-rich foods, such as muscadine grapes, have been reported to improve diabetes outcomes. The objective of this study was to measure the effect of muscadine grape components (skin, pulp, and seeds) on blood glucose in normal weight and overweight individuals (n = 29; 8 male and 21 female; ages 18–28). Anthropometric data was obtained to determine normal (BMI < 25) versus overweight status (BMI > 25). Testing occurred over five days, with a six-day rest period between treatments. Subjects recorded blood glucose after an overnight fast and before consuming samples (standardized at 50 g glucose) at intervals of 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after consuming the sample. Glycemic response was computed using the incremental area under the curve calculation. Peak glucose concentrations were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in overweight versus normal weight individuals. Skin, pulp, whole grape, and seed purees lowered glycemic responses by 72%, 66%, 43%, and 5%, respectively. Only the muscadine skin treatment significantly lowered glycemic response at (p < 0.05). Grape skins positively affected glycemic responses in both normal and overweight subjects.

Effects of Muscadine Grape Products on Healthy and Type 2 Diabetic Subjects: Blood Chemistry, Antioxidant Capacity and Membrane Lipids

Abstract:
Red wines and grape juices contain phenolic compounds with antioxidant properties that are protective against oxidative stress conditions such as hypertension, insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). This study evaluated the effects of muscadine grapes processed as juice (MJ), wine (MW) and dealcoholized wine (DzW) on blood constituents, antioxidant capacity, and erythrocyte membrane lipids of free living T2D and control, non-diabetic subjects. Two Control groups, MJ- group and control without supplementation (CS); and three T2D groups, MJ, DzW and MW each consumed 150 ml of the grape product daily (except for CS) with meal for 28 days. Dietary information, anthropometry and blood sample analysis for erythrocyte membrane lipids, antioxidant capacity, glycated hemoglobin, insulin and electrolytes were carried out. Liver, renal and cardiac function tests were also evaluated. All tests performed at baseline were repeated 28 days post-treatment.

Decreased levels of blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin post supplementation suggest better glycemic control, especially in the T2D- wine group. Low dietary chromium and biotin in all subjects indicate insulin inefficiency in stimulating glucose uptake. Reduced serum sodium and chloride levels among T2D- wine group after supplementation suggest reduced risk for hypertension. High folate and vitamin B12 levels in T2D- DzW indicate a favorable environment for homocysteine clearance and increased insulin sensitivity. Lowered triglyceride, total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol in T2D taking DzW and MW suggest improved lipid metabolism. Decreased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in T2D- wine group indicate better insulin sensitivity and reduced risk of impaired liver function.

In conclusion, T2D- wine and DzW groups exhibited improved serum lipids, ALT, AST and glutathione compared to T2D- juice group. Also, improved serum electrolyte and cardiac function in T2D- wine group, and greater responses in insulin, folate and vitamin B12 in T2D- DzW group were observed. Moderate amounts of wine and dealcoholized wine intake may therefore improve diabetic metabolic functions.
