The antioxidants found in the popular snack offer a wealth of health benefits beyond vision.
Grapes are a popular fruit that are rich in antioxidants, and now new research shows eating them regularly can also boost your vision.
Findings, published in scientific journal Food & Function on Thursday, looked at the impact of regular consumption of grapes on macular pigment accumulation - compounds found in fruit and vegetables that are known to benefit vision - and other biomarkers. Science has shown that an ageing population has a higher risk of eye disease and vision problems. Researchers say one of the key drivers for eye disease are AGES - harmful compounds that are formed when protein or fat combine with sugar in the bloodstream.
As well as being a rich source of vitamin C, grapes are high in antioxidants called phenolic compounds, with studies showing these to benefit the body's defences. These include as anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities.
