Grapes are grown in temperate climates across the world, including Southern Europe, Africa, Australia and North and South America. The majority of grapes grown in the US are from California.
Grapes offer a wealth of health benefits due to their high nutrient and antioxidant contents.
Here are the top 12 health benefits of eating grapes.
1. Packed With Nutrients, Especially Vitamins C and K
Grapes are high in several important nutrients.
One cup (151 grams) of red or green grapes contains the following nutrients (1):
Calories: 104
Carbs: 27.3 grams
Protein: 1.1 grams
Fat: 0.2 grams
Fiber: 1.4 grams
Vitamin C: 27% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI)
Vitamin K: 28% of the RDI
Thiamine: 7% of the RDI
Riboflavin: 6% of the RDI
Vitamin B6: 6% of the RDI
Potassium: 8% of the RDI
Copper: 10% of the RDI
Manganese: 5% of the RDI
One cup (151 grams) of grapes provides more than a quarter of the RDI for vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin vital for blood clotting and healthy bones (2).
They’re also a good source of vitamin C, an essential nutrient and powerful antioxidant necessary for connective tissue health (3).
SUMMARYGrapes contain many important vitamins and minerals, including more than one-quarter of the RDIs for vitamins C and K.
2. High Antioxidant Contents May Prevent Chronic Diseases
Antioxidants are compounds found in plants, for example. They help repair the damage to your cells caused by free radicals, which are harmful molecules that cause oxidative stress.
Oxidative stress has been associated with several chronic diseases including diabetes, cancer and heart disease
