AFG Green Raisins

Description

What Are Afghan Green Raisins?

Afghan Green Raisins are made from the Thompson Seedless or Kismis grape variety, which is green in color and has a smooth texture. The grapes are carefully dried in the sun to preserve their natural sugars and nutrients, resulting in raisins that are plump, juicy, and delicious.

• Harvesting: These raisins are made from grapes that are harvested when fully ripe, and then they are carefully dried to retain their flavor, texture, and nutritional value. In some cases, they are also dried in shaded areas or with minimal heat to preserve their natural color.
• Color and Appearance: Afghan Green Raisins are typically light to medium green in color and are less shriveled than some other types of raisins. They are often larger and juicier due to the drying process used in Afghanistan, which allows them to retain more moisture compared to some other dried grapes.

• Rich in Nutrients

  Afghan green raisins are packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including:

  • Vitamin C: Helps boost the immune system, promote healthy skin, and support wound healing.
  • Vitamin K: Essential for blood clotting and bone health.
  • Potassium: Regulates fluid balance, supports proper muscle function, and helps maintain healthy blood pressure.
  • Magnesium: Important for muscle and nerve function, and helps regulate blood sugar and blood pressure.
  • Iron: Crucial for producing hemoglobin and preventing iron-deficiency anemia.

  2. High in Dietary Fiber

  Green raisins are an excellent source of fiber, which offers several health benefits:

  • Promotes Digestive Health: Fiber helps prevent constipation by improving bowel movements and supports overall gut health.
  • Regulates Blood Sugar: The fiber content helps slow the absorption of sugar, preventing rapid spikes in blood sugar, which is beneficial for people with diabetes or those at risk.
