Abstract

This invention comprises a new mixture aimed to maximize in the health of the human body the positive effects of polyphenols contained in fruits such as grapes, blueberries, and blackberries, and also in products derived from them such as jams and red wines. The mixture includes, specifically, the use of a standardized extract of black pepper, of the piper nigrum species. This extract is diluted in a drink, generally wine, whose content includes polyphenols. The addition of the extract to the wine in set proportions and its subsequent consumption entail an increase in the bioavailability of the main polyphenol included in wine, resveratrol. The increase of the bioavailability generates a series of positive effects in the body such as prevention of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative disorders, anti-cancer properties, anti-diabetic effects, and against osteoporosis.
