The Grapes of Diet Wrath

Grapes are so nutritionally powerful that they can even help prevent ageing by boosting the body’s defenses against certain types of cancer.

For a tasty diet treat that is ultra low in calories, place a few grapes into the freezer on waxed paper until frozen. Be sure the grapes do not touch one another.

Grapes also compliment salads well - both vegetable based salads as well as fruit salads.

Although grape juice contains about two times the calories as grapes, it's a delicious treat, particularly at the end of a hot summer day. A trick to cut calories is to use about 1/2 a cup of grape juice to 1/2 cup of carbonated water which will render a fizzy treat with 1/2 the calories of 100% grape juice.
