GSKE
GSKE is made from grape skins, grape seeds and grape stems and is classified as a grape pomace extract. GSKE has a very high percentage of phenols and minimum of 1.5% anthocyanins. This product has a higher total phenols content and anti-oxidant capacity than most grape seed extracts. Also, GSKE has an ORAC value greater than 16,000/gram. The extracts are manufactured from fresh grapes, which are inspected for quality and screened for defects. The grapes are de-stemmed, crushed, and pressed, leaving a pomace residue of seeds and skin. The seeds or the pomace of seeds and skin (for GSKE) are boiled in water to extract the polyphenolic constituents. The seeds are then removed, and the extract is cooled, enzymatically depectinized, and the pH is adjusted. The Polyphenols are flavonoid compounds and they have antioxidant activity which may help the body's cells resist damage by free radicals, believed to play a role in reducing the risk of various chronic illnesses afflicting world populations such as heart disease and cancer. MegaNatural Gold grape seed extract and MegaNatural GSKE grape pomace extract can henceforth be used as antioxidants in a variety of foods, including frozen dairy desserts and mixes, grains and pasta products, milk products, bakery items and bakery mixes, cheeses, chewing gum, condiments and relishes, confections and frostings, jams and jellies, dessert mixes, meal replacement mixes, gravies and sauces, hard and soft candies, sweet sauces, toppings and syrups.Read more at Polyphenolics
Since 1968, the Kreuz-Neroberger
grape has been grown on the slopes of the Kreuzberg, and the Wilmersdorfer
Rheingauperle grape, adapted completely to its urban atmosphere, even grows on
the tiers of the northern curve of the Wilmersdorf Station on Hohenzollerndamm.
According to the label, the vines for the capital's own sparkling wine are found three
kilometers north of the Office of the Federal Chancellor, namely in Humboldthain.
Even though the vintner's art does have its history along the Spree River, as
witnessed by street names such as Weinbergsweg (Vineyard Way - Mitte),
Weingartenweg (Wine Garden Way - Spandau), and Weinstrasse (Wine Street -
Friedrichshain), today the capital's grapes are pressed in the southern region of
Germany and probably not used for the production of GSKE.
