Derived from grape plants by using a high-tech bioengineering process, the main ingredients in the TIENS Grape Extract Capsules are a grape extract called Resveratrol, (Each capsule contains more than 2.5 mg Resveratrol) and oligosaccharides - complex sugars. The highest levels of this powerful anti-oxidant are most easily found in grapes. It is present in the vines, roots, seeds, and stalks of grapes, with its highest concentration being in grape skin. Resveratrol came under intense scientific scrutiny several years ago when scientists discovered the "French Paradox" - the apparently healthy cardiac status of the French population who tend to eat a high fat diet but drink relatively large quantities of wine.

Laboratory tests have clearly demonstrated that Resveratrol is an effective antioxidant that may help maintain a healthy heart by acting on free radical formation.Most people know that the main dietary source of this antioxidant is wine, especially red wine. However, increased consumption of red wine to boost the antioxidant Resveratrol intake is not recommended.

One TIENS Grape Extract Capsule is equal to one bottle of wine. Using this dietary supplement as part of a healthy diet/exercise programme may help maintain healthy blood cholesterol levels.
