V
Vitis vinifera was one of the most used ingredients by ancient civilizations. Both the vine crops and their final product, wine, are mentioned in Egyptian hieroglyphs from 2400 BC, and in numerous verses of the Bible. Furthermore, historical figures such as Hippocrates, Theophrastus, Galen, Dioscorides and Pliny made mention of their medicinal properties. The red vine has a protective function on the skin and hair against oxidative processes.
