The Claim
Dietary supplementation with red wine grape pomace increased median survival from 23.5 to 36 days in SR-B1−/−ApoE-R61h/h mice with diet-induced ischemic heart disease.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
In mice genetically predisposed to severe heart disease and fed a harmful diet, adding red wine grape pomace to their food extended their average lifespan from 23.5 to 36 days.
See the scientific wording
Dietary supplementation with red wine grape pomace significantly improved survival rates in SR-B1−/−ApoE-R61h/h mice with diet-induced ischemic heart disease, extending median survival from 23.5 to 36 days, suggesting that complex phytochemical-fiber matrices in agricultural by-products may enhance resilience to lethal cardiovascular stress.
Undigested compounds from grape pomace reach the gut, where bacteria break them down into substances that strengthen the gut lining. This prevents harmful bacterial toxins from leaking into the blood, which lowers inflammation in the body and allows the heart to withstand stress longer.
What the research says
1 studyScientists fed mice a supplement made from crushed grape skins and seeds after they got severe heart disease, and the mice lived longer—about 12 extra days. This suggests that food waste from winemaking might help the body handle heart failure better.
