I learned about the powerful healing and cleansing power of the dark seeded grapes when I was doing my certification in "Detoxification" few years back. My teacher repeatedly pointed to the strong healing properties of the dark grapes specially the compound "resveratrol". It is shown in studies that resveratrol can be very useful in prevention and/or treatment of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neuro-degenerative diseases. Dark seeded grapes are very powerful cleansers of the lymphatic system and the colon as well.
Later, I read a book called "grape cure" by Johanna Brandt who cured herself of cancer by eating copious amount of grapes. The book was written in 1920's and is available from amazon.
After reading the book, I got very excited and bought 80 pounds of seeded dark "concord" grapes from the farmer's market :) - it's an interesting story for another day. I ate those grapes in just 2 weeks and saw a lot of cleansing happen in my body. Now, you don't have to go and buy 80 pounds of grapes like I did. That's why I created this smoothie/juice recipe.
Recipe:
Ingredients
4 cups of dark seeded concord grapes
2 green apples
1/2 inch ginger
1 red chili.
1 lemon (optional)
Run everything through the juicer. Bless the juice before drinking. Sit down and drink slowly.
If you don't have a juicer, you can blend all of the ingredients in a blender and if needed add a little water to thin the consistency.
