According to a 2010 study from the University of Freiburg in Germany published in the ''Archives of Pharmacal Research,'' eating grape leaves can reduce edema, or fluid retention, in people with chronic venous insufficiency. The research also showed that grape leaves have impressive antioxidant levels that protect the skin from sunburn and sun-induced skin aging. A study that year from Korea's Chungbuk National University showed grape leaves may protect the brain from memory loss, possibly aiding in Alzheimer's prevention. |
