Regular grape consumption can benefit the functions of joints and relieve the osteoarthritic pain, says study.


Shanil Juma, Ph.D., said that the findings provide promising data that links grape consumption to two very important outcomes for those living with knee osteoarthritis: reduced pain and improvements in joint flexibility.

However, a better understanding is required to recognize the results of the serum's biomarkers and even the age and gender differences needed to be observed carefully.
