A latest information that I get that the grapes turned out to have a role to assist in making the body become slim.
Research conducted by Korean scientists, rarely there are scientists from Korea participated researching.
If you want to trim and maintain their ideal body weight, it does not hurt to regularly eat grapes. A recent research indicates, a compound found in red wine, grapes and some other types of fruit similar in structure to resveratrol, is able to block cellular processes that allow fat cells to develop.
Kee-Hong Kim and Jung Yeon Kwon, two scientists from Purdue University in the Journal of Biological Chemistry reported that compounds in wine called piceatannol has the ability to block immature fat cells to grow and thrive.
Researchers say, piceatannol has a structure similar to resveratrol compound found in grapes and peanuts are expected to help fight cancer, heart disease and neurodegenerative diseases. According to scientists, piceatannol might be an important weapon against obesity. Resveratrol is converted to piceatannol in humans after consumption.
"Piceatannol actually can alter gene expression, gene function and insulin action during adipogenesis (initial process of fat cells turn into mature fat cells)," said Kim.
"In the presence of piceatannol, we can see a delay or hindrance adipogenesis process," he added.
Kim explains, over a period of 10 days or more, the fat cells in the body are usually not too ripe, this phase is called preadipocytes. But after going through several stages, the fat cells turn into mature, or so-called adipocytes.
"We consider the process of adipogenesis is appropriate target to delay or prevent the accumulation of fat cells," he said.
Kim added, piceatannol able to bind to insulin receptors on fat cells are immature in the first stage of the process of adipogenesis. Piceatannol also works by blocking the path of the fat cells to produce and grow.
Piceatannol is one of the few compounds that are currently being studied for health benefits, which are also present in different amounts in the seeds and skins of grapes, blueberries, passion fruit, and other fruits.
Kim confirmed that the findings are currently doing is based on a cell culture system, using an animal model of obesity. "We still need to work to improve the stability and solubility of piceatannol to create a biological effect," added Kim.

So, eating grapes is not wrong, and very useful. Let us increase consumption of fruit for our bodies to be healthy every day.
