Grapes have energy and anti-cancer properties
Experts say that grape fruit is high in energy because of the amount of sugar it contains and because of the presence of an acid called ELLAGIC ACID.
Grapes are a high-energy fruit that has been used in traditional medicine to treat diseases such as arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatism, said Mitra Zarati, a nutritionist and university professor.
He described grapes as having diuretic properties due to their potassium content. Also, this fruit, due to its antioxidants (anti-cancer) such as ELLAGIC ACID, reduces the symptoms of arthritis and neutralizes the body’s carcinogenic function, he said.
ELLAGIC acid can even be effective in neutralizing carcinogens in polluted air and harmful compounds in cigarettes, Zarati said. The reason for having sufficient amounts of potassium and ease of chewing is very good in preventing these problems and lowering blood pressure in the elderly.
It should be noted: Nutritionists recommend that people must allocate one unit of fruit consumption to grapes daily.
