Currants - 10 effects on health

Currants for immunity

The presence of antioxidant vitamin C in blackcurrants turns them into a great immune booster. As the immune system becomes stronger, you will not become vulnerable to cold, fever and infection.

Currants for a healthy heart

Caring for your cardiovascular system becomes much easier with regular consumption of black currants. They are rich in flavonoids, which is a polyphenol compound with excellent antioxidant properties that prevent the formation of deposits (mainly toxic substances) on the inner walls of blood vessels. The result is a smooth flow of blood through the circulatory system.

Currants against high cholesterol and blood pressure

Blackcurrants are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are able to lower the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad cholesterol" and increase the amount of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or "good cholesterol" in your bloodstream at the same time. As a result, there is no cholesterol in the arteries and blood pressure levels remain under control.

Currants have anticarcinogenic properties

Several studies have shown that black currants have significant anti-carcinogenic properties. This is all because they have a lot of antioxidants such as vitamin C, beta-carotene, cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin, etc. The antioxidant content of these fruits is so high that your body remains undamaged by free radicals and remains unaffected by cancer.

Currants calm the nerves and improve mood

Currants have an extremely high content of calcium, which is the best means to calm down, as well as other minerals: magnesium and manganese - to improve mood and increase concentration. Vitamin C is also important for stress. Scientific research has proven the activating and vitalizing effect of currants on the entire metabolism, measurable after only 90 minutes.

Currants for the eyes

Research shows that GLA and linoleic acid, which are found in vitamin C, may show promise in treating dry eye. Fortunately, black currants are enriched with both of these components. Clinical trials with black currants have found that these fruits improve eye function, including:

• the ability of the eyes to adapt to the dark
• blood flow to the eyes
• slowing the progression of vision damage in people with glaucoma
• symptoms of eye fatigue

People who work with computers on a daily basis can use blackcurrant supplements. One study found that 1 tablespoon of blackcurrant berries reduced visual fatigue two hours later.

Currants for eczema

The anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant properties of black currants help you fight against a number of skin diseases. Therefore, black currant oil is used topically to treat eczema, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, etc.

Currants for the skin

Oil made from black currants using low temperature technology (cold pressed) is extremely beneficial for the skin. Its antioxidant properties can nourish your dry and damaged skin and restore its natural glow without any adverse effect. As your skin cells get enough nutrients from black currants, they become soft and plump. In this way, you can reduce all signs of aging.

Currants for hair

Regular consumption of black currant can protect your hair. They contain gamma-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that prevents hair loss and promotes hair growth. In addition to preventing hair loss, black currants help you fight other health problems. These include scalp dryness, hair breakage and excessive hair damage.

Currants for a good sleep

Blackcurrants can help you sleep well and peacefully. Currants are high in magnesium, a mineral that is directly linked to improving the quality, duration and restfulness of sleep. Blackcurrant also helps regulate metabolism, helping to reduce sleep disturbances and the occurrence of insomnia.
