We picked the grapes as food of the week for their very prestigious reputation not only in matters of health, but very effective to help lose weight and help the skin , hair and eyes look very healthy, clean and attractive .
The grape is a highly effective cleanser, which mainly comes to the intestines and helps clean waste matter , fats and toxins that are stuck in the intestinal coatings and are difficult to remove. The grape is also used in food to develop a number of desserts , salads and even stews, very original. Here we share some of them. To learn more see our Natural Health Blog .

Grapes really are an extremely “healthy”, or health-giving food, and I really wish we lived in a climate where we could grow them. These recipes look fantastic, and I’m super excited to try out the new ways of including grapes into my diet!
