Grape Cure

Grapes are not only a tasty treat for your palate, but also a recognised remedy due to its biologic qualities: They have an antioxidant effect and are ideal for cellular protection and skin care. Suitable for grape cures are the Schiava Grossa grape of Merano or Grossvernatsch. Its sugar content is between 14 and 20%. Also organic acids such as volatile acidity, citric acid and mineral salts are contained in the grapes. This unique constellation is completed by a series of vitamins.

The grape cure consists of a daily feed of 300 - 1,000 g of grapes, distributed over two meals, one in the morning on empty stomach (also as freshly squeezed juice), another before a modest dinner, or in the afternoon. After eating, a short walk is recommend.

Important: Grape cure does not only mean that you exclusively have to eat grapes! In various wellness centres in South Tyrol, also body wraps with grape cures, baths with fresh grape juice and back massages with grape oil are offered. Furthermore, some facilities offer also their own natural cosmetic line, such as the Merano Thermal Baths - where it all began.
