Grape stem cells are gaining popularity in the field of skincare and anti-aging due to their potent bioactive compounds.
The Gamay Teinturier Fréaux is a unique French grape variety known for its deep red flesh and juice, unlike most grapes where only the skin is coloured. This characteristic is due to high levels of anthocyanins in both the skin and the pulp of the grape. The grape's intensely red juice is often used in small quantities to add colour to other wines. It is however rarely made into a standalone wine because the grape's high tannins make it overly astringent and bitter.
But, it is precisely the grape's high anthocyanin and tannin levels that give stem cell supplements derived from this grape its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
Together with other bioactive compounds like polyphenols that offer protective effects against environmental damage, and resveratrol that is known for its anti-aging properties, grape stem cells provide many promising benefits.
Rejuve Core uses grape stem cells from Mibelle Biochemistry, which uses a novel cell culture technology to source the cells sustainably.
