About Red grapes

Red grapes are small, round fruits that belong to the Vitaceae family and are commonly consumed fresh or used in cooking, winemaking, and as dried raisins. Thought to have originated in the Mediterranean region thousands of years ago, they are now cultivated globally, particularly in temperate climates. Red grapes are rich in water content, making them naturally hydrating, and provide carbohydrates for energy, along with dietary fiber, vitamins C and K, and antioxidants such as polyphenols and resveratrol. These fruits are low in fat and sodium, contributing to their reputation as a heart-healthy snack. Their vibrant red skin is packed with phytochemicals that play a critical role in supporting overall health.
