Dried currants are very small raisins made from black grapes and contain many of their great health benefits. The anthocyanin pigments found in currants provide its rich deep colour, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. These rich pigments and other flavonoids found in dried currants inhibit tumor and cancer growth. The fibre content in dried currants helps to lower cholesterol, fight cancer, prevent and manage diarrhea, and prevent intestinal disease. Dried currants also supply potassium, calcium, iron, vitamin A and C to protect the heart, fight infection and cancer. Action Tip: Dried currants, also known as ‘zante currants’ resemble tiny raisins but have a stronger, tarter flavour. They are also available fresh as champagne grapes. Dried currants add delicious flavour to baked goods, trail mix and salads. |
