Clinical Study on French Grape Seed Extract and Blood Pressure
Abstract
Investigators at Gabriele D’Annunzio University in Italy conducted a registry study on French grape seed extract—the clinically studied ingredient found in products such as SuperBeets® Heart Chews. Over four months, adults with mildly elevated blood pressure who added the grape seed extract to a diet and lifestyle plan were compared with those following the lifestyle plan alone. The results showed grape seed extract was nearly 2x more effective at supporting healthy blood pressure than diet and exercise alone.1
