  Grape. Its benefits lie in a large supply of vitamins and minerals. By the way, the brighter the color of the grapes, the more benefits they contain. Grapes “supplies” our body with:

  • Vitamins A, C, B6 – vitamins that have a beneficial effect on the skin, immunity, metabolism;
  • Folate is a derivative of folic acid, which is an integral component of the processes that prepare the biosynthesis and duplication of the famous DNA and RNA nucleic acids responsible for the transfer and storage of hereditary traits, which is very important for women, and especially for expectant mothers;

  Selenium is found not only in grapes, but also in other foods: onions and garlic, in some types of fish (for example, tuna, herring), broccoli, white cabbage, seaweed, rye bread, tomatoes, molasses, eggs, beer, shellfish, etc.

  

It is also very useful to introduce the following foods into the diet.:
