以多酚活出精彩人生
以多酚活出精彩人生
数项科学研究强烈建议长期地摄取富含植物多酚的饮食可预防癌症、心血管疾病、糖尿病、骨质疏松症和神经退行性疾病。
健康的肌肤
预防紫外线的伤害和自由基的侵袭17，提增胶原蛋白的合成1，并平滑细纹和皱纹2。
健康的血液循环
降低慢性发炎 – 心脏疾病的主因3, 4, 5以及降低血压和低密度脂蛋白(不良)胆固醇的水平，并同时提升高密度脂蛋白(良好)胆固醇。6,7
健康的血糖水平
降低空腹血糖水平、改善血糖耐力和增加身体对胰岛素的敏感性。8
促进身体排毒的洁净的效力
调节体内的压力、减缓红肿和降低肝脏细胞的死亡率9，提升肝脏健康，以及模仿禁食或减少卡路里摄取量的健康效应，帮助减重。10
健康的大脑功能
每日摄取葡萄汁持续12个星期11可提升患有轻微精神损伤成人的记忆力。每日持续地摄取多酚可改善大脑的血流量，加强记忆和集中力。12, 13, 14, 15
提增能量和肌肉耐力
加速线粒体（我们人体的主要发电厂）的生产量。若搭配运动，它也可改善老年人的肌肉质量和再生能力。16
健康的细胞生成
多酚可抑制各种癌细胞的增生及发展17,18,19，也是其中一种可降低患癌风险的化合物。17, 20
滋养和支持关节健康
预防软骨退化，增加关节软骨和胶原蛋白的合成。21
