A recent study published in the Journal of Sports Science and Medicine demonstrates the ability of Powergrape, from Naturex, to enhance antioxidant status and physical performance in elite male athletes.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study involved 20 athletes from different sports (handball, basketball, sprint and volleyball). After 1 month of supplementation with 400 mg of Powergrape per day, scientists observed the following in athletes: Improvements in the antioxidant status of the body measured by ORAC and FRAP methods, and reduction of oxidative stress induced by physical exercise; reduction of cell damage in muscle and plasma during physical exercise, as suggested by the decrease of creatine phosphokinase (CpK), and the increase of hemoglobin concentrations in plasma; and increase of the global performance proven by a physical test.
Powergrape is a red grape extract from a high-quality Bordeaux variety. Researchers concluded that the results confirm the efficacy of Powergrape supplementation on antioxidant status and physical performance in elite athletes during competition. For further information: www.powergrape.com
