Perspective from Faith Seke

Possible Side Effects
- The fiber present in raisins may cause digestion issues such as gas, bloating and cramps that is if the raisins are consumed in large quantities.
Quantity Recommendation
- I would recommend an everyday consumption of atleast 1 and a half cups of raisins daily in women and men can consume about 2 cups. This portion contains approximately 129 calories and no fats, hence they will not sabotage one's health.
