A group of scientists working at Western New England University conducted extensive research on grapes. Research has revealed the benefits of eating grapes for human health. The benefits of eating fruit have already been known for a long time, but research on grapes has revealed that this fruit is almost a miracle of nature.

In the examinations, it was determined that this fruit prevents the storage of excess fat in the liver. According to experts, preventing fatty liver extends human life by 5 years on average.
