Muscadine grape products intake, diet and blood constituents of non-diabetic and type 2 diabetic subjects.

Abstract

Red wines and grape juices contain polyphenolics with antioxidant and antiplatelet properties that may be protective against oxidative stress leading to hypertension, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes (T2D). This study evaluated the effects of supplementing meals of subjects with 150 mL of muscadine grape juice (MJ), muscadine grape wine (MW), and dealcoholized muscadine grape wine (Dz-W) on glycemic indices, blood constituents, lipid profile, anthropometric, and nutrient intakes of healthy and T2D subjects over a 28-d period.
