this ability of red grapes, which scientists call angioprotective function, is worth understanding in more detail. Strengthening the walls of blood vessels and increasing capillary blood circulation in summer and winter saves us from pain, swelling in the legs, caused by insufficient blood flow.
In addition, the flavonoids of red grapes also strengthen the heart, normalize blood pressure and restore our natural glow by increasing microcirculation in the capillaries.
Grape leaves and healthy blood vessels
And now attention: wine and grapes are pleasant, but there are very few substances we need in them. How to be? There is a more productive source of grape flavonoids – grape leaves! Moreover, their healing properties were known long before the discovery of antioxidants. It has long been noticed by physicians that among rural workers, French grape pickers very rarely complained of swelling of the ankles, fatigue and pain in the legs, although they spent whole days in monotonous standing work. Of course, there was no miracle in this: growers have long used a local method of treatment – compresses and lotions from red grape leaves. It turned out that grape leaves are the source of powerful antioxidants that increase the strength and elasticity of blood vessels. Science has used the traditional method, and the complex of antioxidants and minerals isolated from the leaves of red grapes is called Flaven ™. This pure herbal extract is the base for the Antistax® product line – medicines clinically proven to improve venous circulation and reduce leg edema.
There are absolutely precise verified recommendations on how and during what period the leaves of red grapes should be harvested in order to obtain a medicinal extract. Everything is done in the name of keeping the maximum number of protective elements. The leaves are carefully washed and dried in a special way before starting the extraction procedures for the Flaven ™ Bioactive Complex. By the way, as a result, just two Antistax® capsules contain about the same amount of active antioxidants as three bottles of red wine could contain!
