Yellow Raisins – 250gms

Yellow (Golden) raisins, often called Sultanas, are a highly nutritious dried fruit offering several key health benefits:

• Excellent for Digestive Health: They are a concentrated source of dietary fiber (both soluble and insoluble), which promotes regular bowel movements, helps prevent constipation, and supports a healthy gut microbiome. They also contain tartaric acid, which has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects and may improve gut function.
• Support Heart Health and Blood Pressure: Yellow raisins are rich in potassium, an essential mineral that helps regulate fluid balance and counteract the effects of sodium, contributing to lower blood pressure. Their fiber content also helps lower harmful LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, supporting overall cardiovascular well-being.
• Quick Energy Source: Due to their high concentration of natural sugars (fructose and glucose) and carbohydrates, they provide a fast and convenient energy boost, making them an excellent snack for athletes or those needing quick refueling.
• Rich in Antioxidants: They contain concentrated levels of polyphenols and other phytonutrients that act as powerful antioxidants. These compounds help combat free radicals in the body, reducing cellular damage and potentially lowering the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and certain cancers.
• Support Bone Health: Raisins contain key bone minerals like calcium and magnesium, as well as the trace mineral boron, which works with calcium and Vitamin D to maintain bone density and strength, helping to prevent conditions like osteoporosis.
• Aids in Anemia Prevention: They are a good source of iron and copper, which are vital for the formation of red blood cells, helping to prevent and combat iron-deficiency anemia.

Note: While very healthy, raisins are high in natural sugar and calories, so they should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
