Health through grapes and vinotherapy | Math Cathiard-Thomas

"According to our ancestors, wine gives freshness to the complexion. They were not completely wrong. Recently, several scientific teams have discovered that grapevine has precious 'embellishing' virtues. Grape seeds contain polyphenols with exceptional antioxidant properties, thousands of times more effective than vitamin 'E'. In addition to their anti-aging effect, these substances also have an extraordinary therapeutic interest in the field of cardiovascular diseases. The so-called 'French paradox' is the observation that the French die three times less from heart diseases than Americans, even though they have one of the highest cholesterol levels (10% higher than Americans). Among the polyphenols in question is resveratrol, which is now known to reduce the growth of cancerous tumors. Therefore, grapes, grape juice, and of course wine (consumed in moderation) are the origin of a new approach to health that can be called vinotherapy."
