Raisins are nutrient-rich dried fruits with various health benefits:
1. Rich in antioxidants: Raisins contain abundant polyphenols, which help eliminate free radicals in the body, slow down cellular aging, and support cardiovascular health.
2. Promote digestion: The dietary fiber in raisins helps stimulate intestinal motility, improve constipation, and the natural fructose provides energy for the body.
3. Iron supplementation and blood nourishment: Raisins are a good source of iron, which helps prevent iron-deficiency anemia and promotes blood health.
Although raisins offer many benefits, due to their natural sugar content, diabetic patients should consume them in moderation and control intake under medical guidance.
