Download or read book Anti glycative and Antioxidant Properties of Purple Muscadine and Concord Grape Juices and Their Wines written by Andrew Austin Brock and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The regular consumption of foods and beverages rich in powerful antioxidant phytochemicals has been associated with reduced risks of chronic diseases. For this reason, the antioxidative and anti-glycative activities of Concord and muscadine grape juices and wines were investigated. Though the total phenolics' content of muscadine and Concord grape beverages were similar, the H-ORACFL value of muscadine products were significantly greater than those of Concord grape products. Furthermore, muscadine juice and wine retarded bovine serum albumin glycation to a greater extent than Concord juice and when incubations were performed on equi-volumetric and -phenolic bases. When applied to Caco-2 cells, muscadine products exhibited significantly greater cellular antioxidant activity than the Concord products. Interestingly, the juices of each grape displayed significantly greater anti-glycative and cellular antioxidant activity than their wines. These results indicate that consumption of muscadine products may offer greater health benefits than that of Concord products.
Download or read book A History of Wine in America Volume 1 written by Thomas Pinney and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-09-17 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vikings called North America "Vinland," the land of wine. Giovanni de Verrazzano, the Italian explorer who first described the grapes of the New World, was sure that "they would yield excellent wines." And when the English settlers found grapes growing so thickly that they covered the ground down to the very seashore, they concluded that "in all the world the like abundance is not to be found." Thus, from the very beginning the promise of America was, in part, the alluring promise of wine. How that promise was repeatedly baffled, how its realization was gradually begun, and how at last it has been triumphantly fulfilled is the story told in this book. It is a story that touches on nearly every section of the United States and includes the whole range of American society from the founders to the latest immigrants. Germans in Pennsylvania, Swiss in Georgia, Minorcans in Florida, Italians in Arkansas, French in Kansas, Chinese in California—all contributed to the domestication of Bacchus in the New World. So too did innumerable individuals, institutions, and organizations. Prominent politicians, obscure farmers, eager amateurs, sober scientists: these and all the other kinds and conditions of American men and women figure in the story. The history of wine in America is, in many ways, the history of American origins and of American enterprise in microcosm. While much of that history has been lost to sight, especially after Prohibition, the recovery of the record has been the goal of many investigators over the years, and the results are here brought together for the first time. In print in its entirety for the first time, A History of Wine in America is the most comprehensive account of winemaking in the United States, from the Norse discovery of native grapes in 1001 A.D., through Prohibition, and up to the present expansion of winemaking in every state.
Download or read book Comparative Compositional and Biological Properties of Muscadine and Cabernet Franc Grape Skins written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous studies have documented the health benefits of moderate consumption of wines, and especially red wines. Much of this activity has been attributed to the extraction of phytochemicals from the skin and seeds during on-skin fermentation procedures. This study focused on the extraction and biological properties of phytochemicals from freeze dried skins of muscadine and Cabernet franc. The Cabernet franc grapes are a good source of resveratrol whereas muscadine grapes are an excellent source of ellagic acid with the resveratrol content varying considerably from batch to batch. Both grapes contain a complex mixture of phytochemicals, many of which have been shown to have potential health benefits in vitro. The skins of two muscadine cultivars, Carlos and Noble, and the skins of Cabernet franc grapes obtained during two harvests were freeze-dried, extracted with 80:20 methanol-water, and analyzed for antioxidant capacity followed by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and HPLC coupled with time of flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-TOF-MS) analyses for phenolic compounds. The anticarcinogenic activity of extracts was determined against LNCaP prostate carcinoma cells with the XTT proliferation assay and the caspase-3 assay used to determine apoptosis. The 2006 Cabernet franc extract contained 70.3 ÃŽÂơg/g resveratrol and no ellagic acid, whereas muscadine extracts contained 4.2-12.2 ÃŽÂơg resveratrol and 117-269 ÃŽÂơg ellagic acid per g dried sample. Neither resveratrol nor ellagic acid was detected in the 2007 Cabernet franc extract. The antioxidant capacity was measured using the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. ORAC values of grape skin extracts ranged from 110-354 ÃŽÂơmol Trolox equivalents per g dried sample with Carlos being the lowest, followed by Cabernet franc, and Noble being the highest. At concentrations of 5 mg/mL, all skin extracts induced apoptosis in LNCaP cells as the increases in caspase-3 and other closely related proteases wer.

Download or read book The Red Wine Diet written by Roger Corder and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wine is good for you, and we finally know why. Wine drinkers are less prone to heart disease, diabetes, and dementia than non- wine drinkers. But what exactly is it about wine that keeps us healthy? Which is better for you, a California Cabernet or Syrah from the south of France? How can you choose wines that both suit your tastes and benefit your health? In a landmark study, Roger Corder revealed that compounds called procyanidins are the key components of wine for preventing illness. Now, in The Red Wine Diet, he argues that drinking the right kinds of red wine and eating procyanidin-rich foods such as dark chocolate, apples, and berries can help us live to a ripe old age-while enjoying all the pleasures of life. Corder's own tests show that, as a result of grape variety, wine-making style, and other factors, some red wines contain much higher levels of procyanidins than others. With a unique personal rating system, he describes the most beneficial wines he's found to date. And to round out his lifestyle plan, he includes fifty delicious recipes featuring foods that are high in procyanidins. Corder's prescription is an easy pill to swallow: Drink red wine every day and live a long and healthy life.
