Download or read book Grape Seeds written by José Manuel Lorenzo Rodríguez and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the role of bioactive compounds in grape seed and their beneficial effects. Among the 11 chapters, the authors also discuss the composition, biological activity, and potential applications of grape seeds in the food industry and the health effects of grape seed extracts. As in other matrices, the presence of bioactive molecules in grape seed is related to several factors like grape varieties, climatic and soil conditions, vinification processes, winemaking procedures, extraction techniques and finally evaluation protocols. Chapter 1 addresses the extraction methodologies to obtain biomolecules of interest from grape seed, from the conventional to the most innovative. Chapter 2 discusses the most important and used methods to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of grape seed. Chapter 3 is focused on how flavonoids could modulate the body homeostasis acting directly on the gastrointestinal tract, explaining their effects on obesity-related pathologies. Chapter 4, using liquid chromatographic and mass detection techniques, centers on flavanols, one of the most important types of polyphenols occurring in grape seed. Chapter 5 complements Chapter 2 in evaluating total antioxidant capacity considering that antioxidant activity is usually due to different antioxidants present in grape seed. Chapter 6 studies the effects of polyphenolic extracts in arterial hypertension and oxidative stress via glutathione-peroxidase. Chapter 7 revises the antioxidant properties of grape seed in the conservation of different meat products and dose effect to increasing the shelf life of these products. Chapter 8 shows the potential application of developing new products with healthier characteristics to garner greater consumer acceptance using grape seed in their formulations. Chapter 9 provides a review of the composition and nutritional value of the majority compounds (fatty acid, amino acid and mineral profile), showing the potential application of the use of grape seed as a food supplement to improve the human diet. Chapter 10 indicates the potent antimicrobial activity of grape seed extract against many different microorganisms due to the presence of flavan-3-ols, inhibiting their growth, and potential applications in the food or pharmaceutical industries or even in the medical field. Chapter 11 is focused on the potential use of bioactive compounds in grape seed extract as a remedy against lipid oxidation of meat products.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oligomeric Proanthocyanidin complex, also called OPC, is an incredible antioxidant, one that battles aging, Free radicals and much more. Found in high concentrations in the grapes used for wine making, OPC is the main contributor to the health benefits moderate wine consumption has proven to offer. Yet while drinking wine is a pleasurable past time for many, increased alcoholic consumption has also been shown to be problematic, leading to possible addiction, weight gain, accidents and more. Luckily, there is a way to gain the benefits of OPC without ingesting copious amounts of wine - grape seed extract. Found most commonly in tablets, capsules and liquid form, grape seed extract is readily available at most health food stores and is easily digestible. This guide breaks down where to find it, how to take it, what benefits there are to be gained and discusses any concerns that might arise. While not quite the fountain of youth, Grape Seed Extract may be nature's most perfect antioxidant.

Now for the first time comes a book for grape growers who wish to use organic growing methods to raise healthy, thriving vineyards in the backyard or on a small commercial scale. The Grape Grower distills the broad knowledge and long-time personal experience of Lon Rombough, one of North America's foremost authorities on viticulture. From finding and preparing the right site for your vineyard to training, trellising, and pruning vines to growing new grapes from seeds and cuttings, The Grape Grower offers thorough and accessible information on all the basics. The chapters on grape species, varieties, and hybrids are alone worth the price of a college course in viticulture. Technical information on the major (and minor) insect pests and diseases that affect grapes, as well as their organic controls, makes this book an invaluable reference that readers will turn to again and again. Rombaugh also provides a wealth of information on hardy but little-known grapes that are native to North America, and on a wide range of topics, including: pruning neglected or overgrown vines growing grapes on arbors and in greenhouses controlling animal pests in the vineyard bunch grapes and muscadine grapes for the South winter protection, and how to increase the hardiness of grapes creating your own new varieties

The oil extracted from grape seeds may represent a new income source for the wineries, as it is a novel product appreciated by the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries and for cooking. The oil contains about 90 % of unsaturated fatty acids. Among them, the linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid, is the major component, exceeding the quantity found in other vegetable oils. In addition, the grapeseed oil is an important source of vitamin E and sterols with positive effects on human health. The grapeseed oil has a very low cholesterol level (0.10-1.10%), being considered as an anticholesterolemic agent and a protective agent against heart and circulatory diseases. As regards sensory properties, the virgin grapeseed oil has a pleasant vinous and fruity smell and taste appreciated by the consumer, which makes it an interesting alternative to other seeds oils.**Buy and Give a 5star Review**
