In our time, when preserving youth and beauty becomes an important aspect of self-care, grapes come to the fore as a unique remedy in the fight against aging. Grape berries are a veritable treasure trove of useful substances, and it is not by chance that doctors compare its healing properties with a trip to a sanatorium for mineral waters. Kiev phytotherapist Olena Svitko shares amazing facts about grapes and their role in preserving health.

For those who seek to preserve youth and resist aging, grapes are a real salvation. This berry is rich in antioxidants, natural compounds that prevent cell aging. The phytotherapist emphasizes that grapes contain more antioxidants than any other product. They not only protect the body from harmful free radicals that cause skin aging, but also support the immune system, preventing cardiovascular diseases.

Grape juice is a real therapeutic drink with a unique composition. It contains mineral salts (potassium, sodium, phosphorus, iron, silicon), iodine, vitamins A, B and C, as well as water, close to the composition of alkaline mineral water. This juice not only heals, but also generally strengthens the body. Elena Svitko tells about the grape diet, which for 10 days consumes only grapes in unlimited quantities. This, according to the phytotherapist, contributes to the renewal of the vascular system and the entire body.

Special emphasis is placed on the usefulness of grape seeds, which contain grape oil with a high content of antioxidants. Even a decoction from the seeds gives a strong diuretic effect. Phytotherapist also recommends the use of grape leaves, which are an excellent tonic. Leaves normalize intestinal function, improve the composition of gastric juice and help heal wounds when applied externally.

Finally, the phytotherapist emphasizes that all parts of the grape are beneficial, from the fruit and juice to the seeds, leaves, and even the ashes of the vine. She provides tips and recipes including making burchak, using grape vinegar to care for the heart, and using grape leaf decoction to treat skin conditions.

In this way, grapes become not only a delicious treat, but also an incredibly valuable tool for maintaining health and resisting aging.
