Grape Juice Good for Aging Brain
(HealthDayNews, 3/3/06)
With the partial funding of Welch Food Inc., James Joseph
of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Nutrition Research
Center on Aging at Tufts University, and team, tested both
cognitive and neuro-motor skills of older rats. The
researchers report that rats given concord grape juice
demonstrated significant improvements in both mental and
physical performance. While very preliminary, these findings
suggest that consuming natural antioxidant-rich substances,
like grape juice, may slow the degeneration associated with
aging.
