The Amazing of Grape




INGREDIENTS OF GRAPE
1.    Antioxidant agent:  antosianin, flavonol, geraniol, linalol, nerol and tannin.
2.    Resveratrol, vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin K
3.    Flavanoid and Boron.

GRAPE’S BENEFITS
The whole fruit, skin, leaves and seed of the grape plant are used as medicine.
·        Grape is used for preventing diseases of the heart and blood vessels, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high blood pressure, swelling after injury or surgery, heart attack, and stroke.
·        Some people also use grape as a mild laxative for constipation. You have probably heard of grape “fasts” as part of “detoxification.”
·        Grape seed is used for diabetes complications such as nerve and eye problems, improving wound healing, preventing tooth decay, preventing cancer, an eye disease called age-related macular degeneration (AMD), poor night vision, liver disorders, and hay fever.
·        Dried grapes, raisins, or sultanas (white raisins) are used for cough.
·        Grape leaf is used for attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), diarrhea, heavy menstrual bleeding, uterine bleeding, and canker sores.
·        Grape leaf is used as a food, particularly in Greek cooking.
·        Grape contains flavonoids, which can have antioxidant effects, lower the levels of low density lipoproteins (LDLs, or “bad cholesterol”), relax blood vessels, and reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. The antioxidants in grape might help to prevent heart disease and have other potentially beneficial effects. Red grape varieties provide more antioxidants than white or blush grape varieties.
·        Grape leaf might reduce inflammation and have astringent effects. In other words, grape leaf seems to be able to draw tissue together, which could help stop bleeding and diarrhea. These properties appear to be greatest in the red leaves.

 PRECAUTIONS  
Grape is LIKELY SAFE for most people. Eating large quantities of grapes, dried grapes, raisins, or sultanas might cause diarrhea. Some people have allergic reactions to grapes and grape products. Some other potential side effects include stomach upset, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, cough, dry mouth, sore throat, infections, headache, and muscular problems. 

SERVING GRAPE
Mix with other fruits and snack.
