[Hyper-Concentrated Chemicals From] Wine/Grapes [Applied As A Direct Coating To Extracted Skin Cells In-Vitro] May Prevent <strike>Sunburn</strike> Some UV Damage

The flavonoids in wine and grapes can protect skin cells from death by chocolate UV radiation, says a study by U. Barcelona and the National Research Council of Spain.

Not sure if this study was funded by the Rioja Vintners Chamber of Commerce, but it does make a certain amount of ~sense-ish.

Some sources are reporting that if you Drink Wine or Eat Grapes, it can help.

Erm, I may have read the glaringly-brief Abstracts incorrectly, but I thought the experiments were not carried out on humans, but involved applying coatings to the outside surface of extracted skin cells. -Not systemic propagation through Napa-Destroying Bacchanalia.

-I mean, if RAF Fighter Pilots ate so many carrots that their skin turned orange,

->Then, to propagate similar amounts phytochemicals from grapes or wine, you would be KNIFE-MURDERING your blood-sugar with grapes,

or just PERMANENTLY Hammered-Drunk on wine.

-Like Toulouse-Lautrec-Magnitude Drunk.

-Like Rick James would check you out and make a clever Dorothy-Parker-ian clip about you being PROFESSIONALLY blitzed.

 
…

-maybe door #2, then?

Hrm…

 
Neat Idea anyway. Perhaps yet ANOTHER benefit of the Mediterranean Diet?

I’m guessing, as most experiments go, this was probably done using a chemical concentration no human could possibly achieve through normal consumption.


UPDATE: Some commenters out there are agreeing with me on the consumption-angle skepticism.
