Grapes are a very popular fruit and are consumed around the world for the delicious and sweet taste. They are often consumed on their own but can be added to certain healthy recipes such as salads, or added to many different smoothie recipes. Not only do grapes taste great, but they are loaded with many different vitamins and minerals and can also provide different health benefits for those who consume them. When eating grapes, try to enjoy them in moderation as they can be quite high in sugars and carbohydrates. Now, lets discuss some of the amazing health benefits of consuming grapes consistently.
1. First, grapes are an incredible source of nutrition. They contain high levels of many different vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients for our body. Specifically, grapes are high in vitamin C, vitamin A, riboflavin, niacin, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus to name a few. They are also a great source of antioxidants, phytonutrients, polyphenols and flavonoid compounds such as quercetin.
2. Grapes can also help to boost our immunity, prevent disease and reduce common cold and flu symptoms. This is often attributed to their high levels of vitamin C and vitamin A which not only promote the health of many bodily organs, but also boost the immune system. As well, due to their high levels of antioxidant and flavonoid compounds, they can help to eliminate damaging free radicals and other unwanted compounds from the body that can compromise our immune system.
3. Grapes can also help to treat and eliminate symptoms associated with constipation. They are considered a mild natural laxative that can help to promote bowel movements while also relieving indigestion. This is because grapes are a great source of insoluble fibre, which helps to add bulk and promote the movement of food through the digestive tract.
4. They are also very heart healthy and can help to prevent cardiovascular disease when consumed regularly. Grapes are well know for their high antioxidant content, which can help to prevent the oxidation of “bad” LDL cholesterol and reducing the risk of heart disease. The great antioxidant compounds in grapes, such as quercetin and resveratrol can help to eliminate free radicals that can damages our arteries and again promote heart disease. Grapes can also help to control and balance cholesterol levels.
5. Lastly, grapes, especially red grapes varieties, can help to promote the overall health of our eyes and vision. They can help to prevent macular degeneration and age-related eye disorders. Grapes can also help to reduce the risk of cataracts due to their high levels of antioxidant compounds and eye healthy vitamins, such as vitamin A. This can be especially helpful as we get older.
