Eating grapes may improve blood flow, reduce inflammation and decrease blood pressure in men with metabolic syndrome, a new research has claimed. Researchers from the University of Connecticut found that consuming grapes can lead to a reduction in key risk factors for heart disease in men with metabolic syndrome: reduced blood pressure, improved blood flow and reduced inflammation. Natural components found in grapes, known as polyphenols, are thought to be responsible for these beneficial effects. Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that occur together increased blood pressure, a high blood sugar level, excess body fat around the waist or low HDL (the good cholesterol) and increased blood triglycerides ? significantly increasing the risk for heart disease, stroke and diabetes. The study recruited men between 30 and 70 years of age with metabolic syndrome.
