New Benefit for Concord Grape Juice: Improved Memory... L'Chaim!
Washington DC (www.koshertoday.com)…Concord grape juice can significantly improve short-term memory and motor skills, suggest studies in animals. Research led by James A. Joseph, chief of the neurosciences laboratory at the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging, has demonstrated the benefits of even modest amounts of the juice. “Concord grape juice appeared to reduce or reverse the loss of sensitivity of muscarinic receptors, thus enhancing cognitive and some motor skills in the test animals," says Joseph. "In many of the tests we saw significant improvements or trends toward improvement." This is great news for companies like Kedem whose Concord Grape Juice already touts its heart benefit and endorsement by the American Heart Association.
