Grapes

Peru and Guatemala implemented a free-trade deal on July 1, 14 years after it was signed, reducing tariffs on goods like grapes and palm oil. The agreement aims to enhance economic cooperation between the two countries.

A study published in ACS Nutrition Science suggests that regular grape consumption can alter gene behavior, providing the skin with added protection against sun damage. Researchers found that grape intake reduced harmful chemicals like malondialdehyde in skin cells exposed to UV light, though the study's small sample size limits broader conclusions.

Scientists discovered that eating grapes daily can change skin behavior at the genetic level, improving skin protection and reducing oxidative stress from UV exposure after two weeks. Volunteers showed signs of improved skin protection, with effects appearing widespread despite individual genetic differences. Daily grape consumption may unlock powerful skin protection.
