Golden Organic Corinthian Raisins 250gr

Raisins have a high nutritional value, making them recommended for athletes, but they also have a high caloric value. Approximately 100 grams of raisins have 250 calories, while a cup of raisins is equivalent to 8 cups of fresh grapes! They are a good source of iron, potassium, and selenium, while containing vitamin A and B vitamins and being rich in dietary fiber. Raisins are full of sugars, ranging from 67-72%, most of which is fructose. Finally, they contain antioxidants and a small amount of vitamin C. 

How do they benefit you? Due to their nutrients, raisins help combat iron-deficiency anemia, reduce blood pressure, and fluid retention. The dietary fiber they contain helps with constipation, hemorrhoids, and cholesterol. Although one might think they are harmful to teeth because of their sweet taste and sticky nature, raisins actually contain substances that combat mouth bacteria responsible for tooth decay and gingivitis, suppress the growth of mouth bacteria, prevent them from sticking to teeth and gums, and prevent the formation of dental plaque.
