7 sunscreen mistakes that could be damaging your skin: Keep your skin sun-safe
Researchers found that three daily servings of grapes for two weeks changed skin gene activity and lowered a marker of UV-related oxidative damage.
- A large study suggests that eating three helpings of grapes daily for two weeks may help reduce sun skin damage, complementing other protective measures like SPF sunscreens and hats.
- Grapes are rich in polyphenols, known antioxidants present in the fruit's skin and seeds that neutralize unstable free radicals damaging cells during metabolic processes.
- Gene expression analysis revealed that grape consumption consistently altered patterns in every participant, specifically affecting genes involved in keratinization, the process producing skin's outer protective layer.
- After low-dose ultraviolet exposure, volunteers who ate grapes showed lower levels of malondialdehyde, a chemical marker of oxidative stress, suggesting benefits for the body's largest organ.
- Interestingly, researchers suggest that grape consumption might also influence gene expression in other organ tissues, including the liver, kidney, and brain, indicating broader physiological impacts.

Sun milk protects against skin cancer – or not? A dermatologist explains how much cream is actually needed for adequate protection.
The fear that the sunscreen ‘de granites’ has conditioned for years the way to buy — and, in many cases, also to avoid — sunscreens among those who have oily skin or have a tendency to acne. But neither the solution is to give up photoprotection, nor the fault is only a bad choice of product. “The main mistake is to choose a protector only for the SPF and not for texture,” says the expert in dermocosmetics and formulation Ana Santamarina, founde…
