Nature's Pearl Muscadine Grape Seed Supplement: 'Smarter' Grape with More Nutraceutical Power Goes Nationwide
Muscadine grape seeds contain up to 10 times the antioxidant value of other high-antioxidant foods such as blueberries and cranberries.
04/05/07 Nature's Pearl Muscadine Grape Seed Supplement (http://www.naturespearlproducts.com) is rolling out nationwide, bringing Nature's #1 Source of Antioxidants to the masses for the first time, along with a combination of nutraceutical values found only in Muscadine grapes. With distribution growing rapidly in drug, grocery, health, natural foods, and other retail channels and online, Nature's Pearl is making possible widespread access to the health benefits of Muscadine grapes, concentrated primarily in the seeds. The flagship product is now available in 650 mg. capsules containing pure, premium Muscadine grape seeds without fillers or preservatives.
Typically found in the southeastern United States, Muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia) are dubbed "The Smarter Grape" because they have two more chromosomes than other grapes (Vitis vinifera), which enables a broader range of health benefits. Muscadine grape seeds contain over 100 powerful phenolic compounds that are used to support healthy hearts, joints, blood sugar, brain function, cell function, immunity and sexual function, and address a wide range of issues such as headaches, anti-aging, fatigue, menopause and more.
Muscadine grape seeds contain up to 10 times the antioxidant value of other high-antioxidant foods such as blueberries and cranberries. Compared to other grape seeds, Muscadine grape seeds have 40 times the antioxidants and more Resveratrol - the polyphenol found in red wine and proven to benefit cardiovascular health, blood sugar levels and the aging process, among other health issues. In addition, Muscadine grapes offer a unique combination of phytochemicals and phenolic compounds not found in other grapes, fruits or vegetables, such as Resveratrol, Ellagic Acid, OPCs, and Quercetin.
"At Nature's Pearl, our goal is to bring the health benefits of Muscadine grapes to everyone," said Sandra Bass, vice president of business development. "Muscadine grapes are no secret to the people in the Southeast, many of whom have eaten them in season all their lives," Bass adds. "But, we're educating consumers throughout the country, and even in the Southeast, about the superior nutraceutical power of Muscadines far above other grapes or healthy foods. The most potent part of Muscadine grapes is the seeds - and now we've captured that power and made it conveniently available year-round and internationally," Bass explains.
