ASK A NUTRITION PROFESSIONAL: DOES GRAPE RAISE BLOOD PRESSURE?
Expert opinion from Anastu Regita Nareswara

Grapes are rich in flavonoids, and a body of work suggests that consumption of grapes and grape-containing products might lower blood pressure. Grape flavonoids have favorable effects on endothelial function and inflammation that might reduce arterial stiffness and lower blood pressure. In population studies, wine consumption has been linked to lower blood pressure and reduced cardiovascular disease risk.
