Get on the “Concord” With Me! The “Concord Grape” Jet that is- and Here’s Why!

GRAPES are an AMAZING ANTIOXIDANT and Superfood! Did you know Grape skins have such high mineral content if you put them in a microwave they could start a fire?! (I hope you can’t try this as a microwave doesn’t belong in your kitchen- wink wink!)

Also you may have heard of “The Grape Cure”-people healing themselves of debilitating ailments through a diet high in grapes- well this is why.

Tip:

To slow down the fruit sugar into the bloodstream I like to eat my grapes with some leafy greens. Baby romaine lettuce or spinach work well.  Same goes for any fruit I consume. I also like to add a sprinkle of cinnamon to further regulate insulin, or take a cinnamon capsule. Also be sure to get them organic, as grapes are a highly sprayed crop.

I’m lusting after deep blue Concord Grapes at the moment.  My grandfather used to have an arbor of them from which he made wine and we uses to love to pick them as kids. Not only are they mind-blowingly delicious- but they are portable, kids and adults alike get a kick out of them, and they are easy to find. (Of course the kudos goes for all grapes, especially the dark red and dark blue version, which pack a wallop of the anti-oxidant resevertrol and other nutrients).

A great way to enjoy your grapes: Pop them in the blender with some dark leafy greens and lemon juice for an amazing tonic- delish!! :D
