Red grapes are sweet, juicy fruits famous for containing resveratrol—a polyphenol compound associated with the 'French Paradox' and numerous health benefits. Their rich color indicates high anthocyanin content, making them more nutritious than green varieties.
Red and black grapes contain more antioxidants than green varieties due to their anthocyanin pigments. They also have higher resveratrol content. However, all grapes are nutritious choices.
Grapes are higher in natural sugar compared to some fruits (about 15g per cup). However, they have a moderate glycemic index (53) due to their fiber and polyphenol content. Enjoy in reasonable portions.
Grape seeds are safe to eat and contain concentrated proanthocyanidins (powerful antioxidants). If you find them unpleasant, seedless varieties are fine, though you'll miss some nutritional benefits.
Refrigerate unwashed in a perforated plastic bag for up to 2 weeks. Wash just before eating. Grapes should be firm and plump with intact stems.
