However, these patterns shifted noticeably after they ate grapes, after they were exposed to UV light, and when the grape-eating was combined with UV exposure.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/sunlight-exposure-pose-life-changing-health-benefits-expert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SUNLIGHT EXPOSURE CAN POSE LIFE-CHANGING HEALTH BENEFITS, EXPERT SAYS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>While everyone&#8217;s individual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/genetics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">genetic responses<\/a> were unique, grape consumption changed gene expression across all participants.<\/p>\n<p>When skin is exposed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/beauty-and-skin\/sunburn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UV rays<\/a>, it normally creates a chemical called malondialdehyde, which is a warning sign of cellular damage. After eating grapes, the volunteers showed significantly less of this damaging chemical, the study found.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are now certain that grapes act as a superfood and mediate a nutrigenomic response in humans,&#8221; John Pezzuto, PhD, professor and dean of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences at Western New England University, said in the press release.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters?cmpid=fnfirstnl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We observed this with the largest organ of the body, the skin.
