Antioxidants slow down or stop the free-radical-induced chemical reaction and may help skin cells regenerate. Their value is nothing new in the beauty biz.
It turns out that the chemical contents of grapes, grape seeds and dark fruits, particularly the compound resveratrol, are effective antioxidants. Three French companies and one in California are now marketing wine and vine as the latest skin saver.
Dr. David Sinclair, director of the Paul F. Glenn Laboratories for Aging Research at Harvard Medical School, published a study in 2003 showing that resveratrol helped increase a yeast cell's life span by 70%. Dr. Johan Auwerx of the Institute of Genetics and Molecular and Cellular Biology in Illkirch, France, found that resveratrol improved muscles in mice. Of course, there's no guarantee that resveratrol-rich products will do for human skin what the compound apparently does for mice muscles, but Auwerx is enthusiastic about the possibilities.
