12 Benefits of Raisins That Make Them Healthy

Help Against Anaemia

Raisins have a good amount of iron content and B-Complex vitamins in them which help to treat anemia. The copper content in raisins also helps in the production of red blood cells.

A study showed that anemia is common in older individuals, especially those over the age of 85, affecting more than 20% of them. In nursing homes, 50-60% of people have anemia. In the elderly, about one-third of anemia cases are caused by nutritional deficiencies, such as iron, folate, or vitamin B12 deficiency. Mild iron-deficiency anemia is commonly observed in women of childbearing age due to inadequate iron intake in their diets and monthly blood loss during menstrual cycles.
