Concord Grapes
Concord grapes are known for their dark purple skin
and seeds, which are full of polyphenols, a compound
proven to boost your brain power, keeping you sharp
and alert.
They also bolster your arteries, reducing the risk of
heart disease while increasing blood flow to the brain.
Since these grapes are harvested for a few short weeks during the fall, finding them fresh is very
difficult, so opt for drinking 100% pure grape juice instead to get all the benefits of these potent
fruits.

powers of mushrooms.

low in calories, making them a great addition to your weight loss efforts.
