Grapes & Grape Juice
Posted on 06.18.05 by Administrator @ 4:38 pm Edit This

You’ve probably heard in recent years that drinking a small amount of red wine is good for preventing heart disease. Well, the active ingredient is called resveratrol and Japanese studies showed that it could prevent artherosclerosis in animals. The good news is that red grape juice is as effective as red wine because it also contains resveratrol.

Eating grapes of all colours is good for your health for other reasons too. They contain the cancer-busting compnent called ellagic acid, and they also contain boron which may help prevent osteoporosis.

All that, combined with the fact that grapes are delicious, makes them a really healthy, tasty choice!
