6. Grapes inhibit bad LDL cholesterol and plaque build-up in the arteries. They are rich in micronutrient minerals like copper and manganese. Grapes have a low glycemic index and contain the hormone and antioxidant melatonin as well as good amounts of electrolyte potassium. Dried grapes (raisins) have a good amount of iron too.
