Brief Summary: Rationale Survivors of childhood cancer are at an increased risk of developing cardiovascular risk factors as well as early cardiovascular disease likely due to the intensive therapeutic regimen used to treat their cancer Purple grape juice PGJ is a rich source of flavonoids and a powerful antioxidant Clinical studies in both diseased and healthy adults suggest that daily consumption of PGJ contributes to increased antioxidant capacity reduced low-density lipoprotein LDL oxidation and improved vasodilation

Purpose This randomized clinical trial is evaluating whether purple grape juice can reduce oxidative stress and improve the vascular health of survivors of childhood cancer in the early stages of cardiovascular disease
Detailed Description: Primary Objective

To evaluate the effect of PGJ on endothelial function a key measure of vascular health and considered a barometer for cardiovascular disease risk

Secondary Objective

To evaluate the effect of PGJ on biomarkers of vascular and systemic oxidative stress

Outline

Patients undergo a 4-week washout period and refrain from consuming any type of juice juice drink less than 100 juice wine or grapes Patients are then randomized to 1 of 2 arms

Arm 1 Beginning in week 4 patients consume 6 ounces of purple grape juice PGJ twice daily for 4 weeks Beginning in week 12 after a 4 week washout period patients crossover to consume apple juice AJ as in Arm 2

Arm 2 Beginning in week 4 patients consume 6 ounces of AJ twice daily for 4 weeks Beginning in week 12 after a 4 week washout period patients crossover to consume PGJ as in Arm 1
