Are Grapes Good for Your Skin?
Grapes are great for your skin, supporting it in several ways. A big one is resveratrol. This polyphenol produces anti-inflammatory and anti-mutagenic effects in the body, including the skin. It’s been documented to inhibit skin cancer tumors and produce a photoprotective effect (1).

Grape juice also contains significant amounts of vitamin C. This vitamin is key for collagen production in the body, which helps prevent wrinkle formation by keeping our skin taught as supporting even skin tone (2). Both resveratrol and vitamin C are also powerful antioxidants, removing free radicals that break down collagen and cause the signs of aging skin to appear.
Pomegranates, too, bring skin-loving properties to this recipe. With their wealth of antioxidants, they work to prevent free radical damage and support healthy skin. They’re particularly known for their ability to reduce skin damage from UVB rays; the form of ultraviolet radiation responsible for sunburns, and the primary cause of skin cancers (3, 4).
Nama J2: A Great Grape Juicer!

I made the Pom Sapphire using the Nama J2 Juicer. This machine is a great grape juicer, plus a whole lot more, and has taken the industry by storm!
- Super Fast Operation
- Large Load-and-Go Produce Hopper
- Minimal Chopping
- Great Nutrient Extraction
- Very Easy to Use
- Quick Cleanup
- 15-Year Warranty
- Some Pulp Left in the Juice
- Can't Make Sorbets, Smoothies, or Nice Cream
The Nama J2 brings together all the most important aspects of a great juicer: easy prep, fast juicing, good yield and nutrient extraction, and quick clean up. What makes this juicer so fast and easy to use is its 5 1/4-inch hopper. Just fill that bad boy up with produce, close the lid, and walk away while it juices!
The large size of the hopper combined with its auto-cutting blade means you have to do very little produce prep. I drop in whole pineapples (sans the crown and skin), and the Nama juices them with no problem. Talk about a serious time-saver!
Clean-up is a snap, and it comes with an excellent 4-year parts/15-year motor warranty. I definitely recommend this juicer for any home juicer, from newbies to daily divas! It’s the machine I use most regularly, and I love it!
