English Text is further down.

葡萄被称为“水果女王”，因为它是自古以来最有营养和药用价值的食物之一。我们倾向于忽视葡萄，不要被它们不起眼的样子愚弄了，葡萄远比枸杞更有益于健康！要知道，鲜榨的葡萄汁被称为“神的花蜜”，正是因为其含有大量对健康有益的成分。葡萄皮含有绝大部分的抗氧化物和营养，请尽可能选择有机葡萄。

葡萄富含丰富的维生素A、C和B族复合物，以及矿物质诸如钙、镁、铜、硼、锰、铁、硒和钾。葡萄还含有大量强效抗氧化物诸如生物类黄酮、白藜芦醇和花青素。

上述这些植物化学物能够对抗炎症、病毒、细菌、衰老、癌症，并预防贫血、退行性神经疾病、心脏疾病、病毒和真菌感染、老年痴呆症、自身免疫性疾病以及各种癌症。葡萄可以缓解哮喘、偏头痛、便秘、胃炎、慢性酸中毒、消化不良、肾功能问题、疲劳和视力问题。

葡萄可以通过提升血液中的硝酸水平，从而帮助预防血栓形成，因此可以提供对心脏和心血管系统的最佳保护。这可能会让你惊讶，葡萄可以对抗蛀牙并并阻止病毒传播。葡萄还可以帮助调节体内胰岛素水平以及总体血糖平衡，从而改善血糖问题。

葡萄现在被误认为过多碳水、糖或卡路里，因此对我们健康不利。事实与其恰恰相反。和香蕉一样，葡萄是最棒的水果之一，可以大大促进健康。葡萄实际上并不如我们想象的那么甜，更重要的是其酸味，这是一种关键的药用品质。这意味着葡萄中存在对肾功能至关重要的植物化学物。你可能听说过，肌酐水平升高意味着肾脏从血流中去除和代谢废物的能力削弱了。葡萄是最终的肾脏补品，其所含的植物化学物会与肾脏无法处理的废物结合并将其排出。

肝脏对我们的健康如此重要，和樱桃一样，葡萄同时也是神奇的肝脏净化食品。其所含的植物化学物能够松动垃圾、加工食品和可能堵塞肝小叶的各种物质。

对于想要改善消化道功能的人，葡萄皮含有功能强大的微量营养素，可以驱逐肠道内的寄生虫、霉菌和其他有害真菌。此外二甲花翠素和花青素等抗氧化物（这是葡萄皮各种颜色诸如蓝色、黑色、暗红色和紫色等色彩的来源）赋予葡萄强大的对抗各种癌症的能力。葡萄可以对抗任何毒素：去除体内的辐射，其所包含的氨基酸诸如组氨酸、蛋氨酸、半胱氨酸与花青素一起合作，类似于磁铁一样能够将DDT和有毒重金属从肝、肾和脾等器官中吸出，它们也是强大的病毒杀手，因此对于各种病毒引起的慢性疾病都很有帮助，诸如自身免疫性疾病。

葡萄是一种极棒的能量食物，无论你是一个运动员、或不断在旅行或出差、或大量用脑人士、或管理任何重大项目、或需要大脑燃料能够有创新想法，都可以从葡萄中获得关键的支持。

二．如何食用葡萄

尝试在搅拌机（破壁机）中，将葡萄、生蜂蜜与一个柠檬的汁混合。生蜂蜜可以帮助提取出葡萄皮中具有疗愈作用的植物性化合物。并将其送入体内重要器官的深处。

如果摄入有机葡萄，只需轻轻冲洗即可。有机葡萄上的残留物对健康高度有益，充满了“崇高微生物”（最强大的益生菌）。

黑皮的葡萄是最有营养的，如果是有籽的品种则更好！葡萄籽具有惊人的疗愈效果。您可以咀嚼葡萄籽或将葡萄放入高速搅拌机或榨汁机，制成易于消化和吸收的甘甜、美味、强大的抗氧化饮品，。

三．葡萄可以帮助改善或疗愈的疾病和症状

如果有以下疾病或症状，建议将葡萄加入每天的饮食：

疾病：细菌性胃肠炎、生活在霉菌环境中、黄斑变性、高血压、高血压相关的肾脏疾病、肾脏肌酐问题、肾结石、胆结石、低血糖、注意力不足多动症（ADHD）、自闭症、乳腺癌、糖尿病、脑瘤、败血症、胰腺癌、子宫内膜异位症、支气管炎、大肠杆菌感染、神秘不孕、脂肪肝、乙型和丙型肝炎、结节、抑郁、结肠癌、水肿、贫血、睡眠障碍、纤维肌痛、慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）、多发性硬化症（MS ）、神经障碍、自主神经病变、痔疮、单纯疱疹1（HSV-1）、单纯疱疹2（HSV-2）、幽门螺旋杆菌感染、肌瘤、感冒、眩晕、生殖系统能量低下、各种自身免疫性疾病和病症、细菌感染。

四．葡萄的情感支持

葡萄在你感觉沮丧时可以提振我们的精神，并让我们对生活保持愉快和轻松的看法。如果你被指控莫须有的罪名，葡萄可以帮助我们免受其伤害，并在我们被排挤时疗愈我们。如果你对于没有被选中（诸如某个工作、项目或机会等）感到失望，葡萄可以帮助我们前进，创造新的机会。如果你是一个不愿意改变的人，因此会错失良机后悔，在饮食中加入葡萄可以帮助改变，让你变得更勇敢，从而能抓住机会。葡萄可以让看似冷漠、漫无目标、自负的人慢慢改变。

Grapes

Grapes have been called the “queen of fruits” due to being one of the most nutritious and medicinal foods available since ancient times. Grapes are a rich source of vitamins A, C, and B-complex, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, boron, manganese, iron, selenium and potassium. Grapes contain high amounts of powerful antioxidants known as bioflavonoids, resveratrol, and anthocyanins.

These phytochemicals are anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-microbial, anti-aging, and anti-cancerous and provide protection against anemia, degenerative nerve diseases, heart disease, viral and fungal infections, Alzheimer’s, autoimmune disorders, and all forms of cancer. Grapes can also help provide relief from asthma, migraines, constipation, gastritis, chronic acidosis, indigestion, kidney disorders, fatigue, and vision problems.

Grapes have the ability to help prevent blood clots due to their ability to increase nitric oxide levels in the blood and therefore provide excellent protection for the heart and cardiovascular system. Grapes also amazingly enough fight tooth decay and can stop viruses in their tracts. Grapes can benefit blood sugar by providing better insulin regulation and overall blood sugar balance.

The black variety of grapes are by far the most nutritious and if you can find them with seeds, even better! Grape seeds provide phenomenal healing benefits. You can chew the seeds up or place the seeded grapes in a high speed blender or a juicer. It will make a sweet, delicious, and powerful antioxidant drink that is easily digested and assimilated.

In fact, fresh raw grape juice has been called the “nectar of the gods” due to its high concentration of health promoting properties. And since the skins contain most of the antioxidants and nutrition, you will want to choose organic whenever possible.

Grapes should not be misunderstood as being too high in carbs, sugar, or calories to be good for us. It’s just the opposite. Like bananas, grapes are a first-rate fruit that promotes wellness of the highest level. And grapes are less sweet than we think; they are more defined by tartness, which is a key medicinal quality. That sourness indicates the presence of phytochemicals critical to kidney function. If you’ve ever heard that you have elevated creatinine levels, this means your kidneys have become compromised in their ability to remove and excrete waste products from the bloodstream. Grapes are the ultimate kidney tonic—their phytochemicals bind onto waste that the kidneys have trouble filtering.

Many people are also concerned about liver health. Like cherries, grapes are an amazing liver-cleansing food. Their phytochemicals are able to dislodge debris, processed food, and by-products that can clog up lobules in the liver. And for those looking for digestive benefits, grape skins hold powerful micronutrients that expel parasites, mold, and other unproductive fungus from the intestinal tract. Further, antioxidants such as malvidin and other anthocyanins (which explain grapes’ blue, black, dark red, and purple shades) give grapes the power to help fight and prevent most types of cancer. Grapes are an amazing food to fight the Unforgiving Four: they expel radiation from the body; their amino acids such as histidine, methionine, and cysteine work together with their anthocyanins to become a magnet that draws DDT and toxic heavy metals out of the liver, kidneys, spleen, and other organs; plus they’re a potent antiviral for autoimmune disease, which is caused by the viral explosion.

Finally, grapes are an outstanding energy food. They offer a critical boost, whether you’re an athlete, constantly on the go, or you’re a thinker—that is, engaging your brain all day with cognitive tasks (and multitasking), trying to excel at a given project, or in need of fuel to come up with your next big idea.

CONDITIONS

If you have any of the following conditions, try bringing grapes into your life:

Bacterial gastroenteritis, mold exposure, macular degeneration, hypertension, hypertension-related kidney disease, creatinine issues with the kidneys, kidney stones, gallstones, hypoglycemia, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, breast cancer, diabetes, metastatic brain tumors, sepsis, pancreatic cancer, endometriosis, bronchitis, E. coli infection, mystery infertility, fatty liver, hepatitis C, nodules, depression, colon cancer, edema, anemia, sleep disorders, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), multiple sclerosis (MS), neurological disorders, autonomic neuropathy, hemorrhoids, herpes simplex 1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex 2 (HSV-2), hepatitis C, hepatitis B, H. pylori infection, fibroids, common colds, vertigo, low reproductive system battery, all autoimmune diseases and disorders, bacterial infections

SYMPTOMS

If you have any of the following symptoms, try bringing grapes into your life:

Food allergies, palm sweats, emotional eating, dizziness, nausea, Bell’s palsy, shortness of breath, hearing loss, tremors, body odor, chest pain, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms, confusion, brain fog, cough, backache, inflammation, myelin nerve damage, scar tissue in the liver, blood toxicity, fatigue, brain lesions, hot flashes, hair loss, congestion, brittle nails, blurry eyes, ringing or buzzing in the ears, food allergies, food sensitivities, sensations of humming or vibration in the body

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT

Grapes help when you’re feeling emotionally broken, lifting your spirits and encouraging a jovial, lighthearted outlook on life. They can prevent you from becoming wounded if you’re ever falsely accused of a misdeed and promote healing when you feel excluded in social situations. If you ever feel disappointed that you weren’t chosen for a certain project or job, go out and buy some grapes—they can help you forge ahead and create new opportunities. And if you’re someone who’s reluctant about change, passing up opportunities and later regretting it, embrace grapes in your diet and feel the transformation as you’re able to be braver and take advantage of the special moments life presents. Finally, offer grapes to friends and family members who seem aloof, adrift, or complacent; over time, this fruit can help alter their direction and improve their behavior.

SPIRITUAL LESSON

When you feel isolated—living your life with little interaction or coping with shyness and yet yearning for a sense of belonging with a group that accepts you—make grapes a part of your life. Remember, grapes are bunched together. As each cluster grows on the vine, the little globes stay close to each other, connecting on both a physical and metaphysical level. Each grape adjusts to fit perfectly into place with those around it. Focus on this wonder when you select and eat grapes. It will create a sacred intention, prepare you consciously and subconsciously to find your people, and point you toward your true home.

TIPS

· We tend to overlook raisins. Don’t let their humble status fool you. Raisins are more powerful for your health than goji berries!

· Try this recipe for fresh grape jelly: In the food processor, combine Concord grapes, raw honey to taste, and a squeeze of lemon as preservative. The sugar from the honey extracts healing phytochemicals from the tart, medicinal skin of the grapes, making these nutrients bioavailable and delivering them deep into your vital organs.

· When preparing organic grapes to eat, simply give them a gentle rinse. The residue on organic grapes is actually beneficial, because it’s filled with the elevated biotics we looked at in the “Adaptation” chapter.
