You know I’m a big believer that food is medicine. And I’m also a huge fan of grapes. I snack on them pretty much daily.
With summer sun on the horizon, a lot of people are worried about sun damage to their skin. Could grapes be the magical cure?
Researchers at Western New England University conducted an experiment involving eating three servings of whole grapes each day for two weeks. The results show an increased keratinization and cornification (big words that help form the skin’s protective outer layer against environmental damage). Researchers say this leads to improvements in skin health.
This is great news, right? Who is going to pass up eating grapes? They’re delicious.

Laura McKenna grew up in Ohio and got her first job in radio in La Crosse in 2005. She packed up her stuff, made the move, and has been in Wisconsin ever since! Her favorite season is winter but she loves to spend all summer in her vegetable garden. When she isn’t in her pink kitchen cooking up vegetarian recipes, more than likely she’s taking bubble baths, reading mystery novels (sometimes while in a bubble bath), cheering for THEE Ohio State Buckeyes, or officiating weddings! She married her best friend from college last year but they still don’t live in the same house yet. Laura’s favorite way to spend a Friday night is watching Dateline with her cat (Phil Dawson) on her lap. She’s thrilled to be keeping you company during the workday!
