Raisins are loaded with fibers, which swell when they absorb water and effectively provide relief from constipation. Regular intake of raisins helps regularize bowel movement as the fibers remove toxins and wastes from the gastrointestinal tract. Raisins pack more nutrition than their small size might indicate. When grapes are dehydrated to produce raisins, the nutrients become more concentrated, making a handful of raisins a snack rich in B vitamins, iron, and potassium. Besides nutrients, raisins are also a good source of carbohydrates for energy.
