Cyanidin is a water-soluble pigment, which is a phenolic compound. Mulberry is rich in anthocyanins, which can be converted from chlorophyll. In early summer, the soluble sugar content of mulberries increases and the anthocyanins gradually turn red or purple. The darker the color of the mulberry wine, the more anthocyanins it contains. Since there are no pure anthocyanin products on the market, anthocyanin intake is required. Currently, only dietary supplements such as food containing anthocyanins or mulberry wine can be used.
Antioxidant effect The anthocyanins in mulberry wine have a higher capacity to scavenge superoxide radicals than tannins. There is now much evidence that free radicals can cause oxidative damage to fats, proteins and nucleic acids, and are an important cause of diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and neurological disorders. Therefore, the antioxidant activity of anthocyanins may play a very important role in the prevention of these diseases.
Improve vision Medical clinical reports indicate that anthocyanins can promote the regeneration of retinal cells, prevent severe myopia and retinal detachment, and improve vision. It can also improve vision in dim light.
Oral skin cosmetics Anthocyanins, known in Europe as “oral skin cosmetics”, can prevent the early formation of skin wrinkles and are the most effective antioxidants in nature today. In his experiments, a Finnish doctor found that the sun kills 50% of human skin cells.
Removing harmful free radicals from the body Free radicals are a major cause of aging and many diseases. It is estimated that about 80-90% of aging and degenerative diseases are related to free radicals, including cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, heart disease, etc. Therefore, eliminating harmful free radicals is very important for maintaining good health and youthfulness.
Improve Sleep With the accelerated pace of life and increased work pressure, people’s normal biological clocks change from time to time, such as constant overtime work, which makes people’s lifestyle habits have to accept such changes, so they often suffer from sleep deprivation.
Strengthening blood vessels and improving circulation Anthocyanins can improve blood circulation, restore lost microvascular function and strengthen fragile blood vessels, thus making them more flexible. Proanthocyanidins are known as the “antidote to atherosclerosis”.
