People use to say that
„the darker the berry, the sweeter the juice”. Well, we would add that when it comes to grapes, there is no such thing as ‘not sweet’. This can actually be a pretty nice way to lend some color to the standard orange and grapefruit juices. Plus, grapes are still in season and have much to give you! Here’s
5 things in grape juice that really make it a ‘health bomb’:
- Antioxidants
You already know about them, but let’s give a different definition for these ones today!
“Antioxidants are really like little bodyguards inside your body that protect your cells from disease.” Sounds good, right? So, by drinking grape juice you get plenty of ‘body defendants’ that help your cells recover and also protect them from getting damaged in the first place.
- Flavonoids
As a matter of fact, flavonoids are also a part of the antioxidant group. They are
natural polyphenols that are present in grape juice as well. These little ‘buddies’ are thought to increase the good (HDL) cholesterol and prevent from arterial clogging. This way you get lower risk of any eventual heart issues in the future!
- Resveratrol
Oh, resveratrol, where would we be without you!? In case you are still wondering why we respect it so much, you should probably check
this article out! So, this flavonoid that is part of the grapes’ skin is definitely something that makes grapes
‘a must’. Some specialists say that grape juice can actually be more beneficial than red wine, cranberry or even orange juice. That’s because of resveratrol, which is known to prevent from cancer formations.
- Immunostimulating properties
However strange it may seem, grape juice can actually act as an
immunostimulant. This way it could keep any illnesses and infections away from you. What’s more, the juice can be a real booster for the immune system as it increases its natural protective powers.
- High nutritional value
OK, we know this might be even weirder, but it’s actually true! Grapes can have very high nutritional value, which automatically makes grape juice a very nice thing to have for breakfast. Professionals suggest that we include grapes in any form in our daily menu to maintain healthy nutrition/diet. How about that?! Go grab our
