Raisins

 

I always loved grapes, but I hated raisins as a kid.

It was not until I reached my late teens that I started to like and love raisins. My tastebuds changed.

Raisins are high in fiber and aid the digestive system. They promote bowel movements as sufficiently as prunes do if not better.

I love raisins plain, I love them in oatmeal cookies, and I loved them in my Uncle Sam’s Raisin Bran before the cereal went out of the market.

 

Go Ape For Grapes!

 

I purchased a bag of Sun World Midnight Beauty seedless black grapes yesterday evening

They were flawless, firm, juicy and delicious!

I ate the entire bag of grapes all at once in the two bunch portions that were connected to their vines.

Grapes, especially the black (deep dark purple) and red ones are a good source of resveratrol.

Polyphenols are very good for us. They operate as antioxidants which fight against free radicals to protect our cells.

Just like many other fruits, grapes have the power to protect and maintain the health of the cardiovascular and digestive system.
