A recent study shows that grape juice's polyphenols (phytochemicals which act as antioxidants) may reduce blood pressure by encouraging relaxation of artery walls. (Experimental Biology Meeting, 4/4/05). Another study on 40 Korean men with mild hypertension showed that drinking Concord grape juice lowered there blood pressure by almost seven points (Biofactors 4/05). Researchers have also found grape juice to lower cholesterol and inhibit atherosclerosis, proving that it's an all-around superstar for cardiovascular health.
