Abstract

In traditional Iranian medicine as well as the hadiths of the Imams about nutrition, there are important points that are needed to be considered. Dietary recommendations for the consumption of Black Corinth Raisin (Vitis vinifera L.) in Islamic religious books and the low probability of distortion in such hadiths on the other hand, can have high scientific support to ensure the physiological health of individuals. Emphasis has been undertaken on continuous eating of the fruits/nuts in these books to prevent the forgetfulness, enhance the memory and happiness, and improve physical health. This review has investigated the published studies in details on properties of red/black grape regarding the mentioned issues.
