#DriedFruit

Sprinkling raisins or other dried fruits onto your morning cereal could be a simple step toward a longer, healthier life, according to a significant new study that’s capturing attention in health circles. Researchers from the University of Science and Technology in Anhui, China, have found that adults who add dried fruits like raisins to their breakfast routine see their risk of dying from heart disease reduced by 18%, and from cancer by 11%, as published in the peer-reviewed Nutrition Journal (Daily Mail). The findings are based on the eating habits of a massive cohort—186,000 participants in the UK—making it one of the most comprehensive analyses to date on breakfast and longevity.
