Antioxidants
  Antioxidants are molecules that counteract the damaging process of oxidation. Antioxidants can safely interact with free radicals and can help by terminating the chain reaction before vital molecules are damaged.
  There are thousands of antioxidants that can be found in the fruits and vegetables we eat, some more than others, but no single antioxidant can combat the effects of every free radical. Different antioxidants help with different areas of the body to help repair or prevent cell damage.

What are Polyphenols
  Beneficial micronutrients naturally found in plant-based foods. Muscadines have the most polyphenols of any grape. The highest polyphenol content is found in their thick skins and seeds.
THERE ARE MANY:
Anthocyanidins
Catechin
Cinnamic Acid
Cyanidin
Delphinidin
Ellagic Acid
Epicatechin Gallate
Epigallocatechin
Flavonoids
Ferulic Acid
Gallate
Gallic Acid
Geraniol
Kaempferol
Malvidin
Myricetin
OPCs (oligomeric proanthocyanidins)
Peonidin
Petunidin
Quercetin
Resveratrol
Rutin
Tartaric Acid
Vanillic Acid
Resveratrol
What is Resveratrol?
  A polyphenol found to protect you against diseases like Cancer, Diabetes, and Alzheimer's. Studies have shown reversatrol reduced or blocked 70% of known Prostate and Breast cancer cell development.
  • Helps Estrogen Metabolism

    • Powerful Source of Quercetin, Ellagic Acid, Flavonoids, & OPCs
  • Reduces Oxidative Stress
  • Revitalize Energy Levels
  • Boost Cardiovascular Health
  • Increase Blood Flow
  • Improves Brain Function
  • Supports Healthy Immune System
  • Promotes Joint Health
  • Supports Sexual Health
  • Anti-Viral Properties
    • Healthier Skin
      Strong antioxidants found in Muscadine grape seeds and skins increase collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and stretch marks. When taken via supplement (capsules), Muscadine grape seeds and skins promote healthy, youthful looking skin, as well as improves the skin's overall elasticity and smoothness. Resveratrol exhibits similar anti-aging activities both in vitro and in vivo, evidenced by its ability to inhibit AAPH-induced senescence and apoptosis, restore the age-related cognitive impairment caused by D-gal administration.
