Why do grapes cause kidney failure in dogs?
The cause of kidney failure in dogs due to grapes and raisins is still unknown. It is known, however, that the danger occurs with both commercially-grown and home-grown grapes, so it is probably something in the grapes themselves rather than an insecticide or something like that. Raisins are even more toxic. One or two grapes is no big deal, unless it's a small dog. More than that, or any amount of raisins, is a reason for a quick trip to the vet. The sooner support is initiated, the more likely a successful treatment.

What is the difference between rasins and sultanas?
The main difference between raisins and sultanas is the type of grape used and the drying process. Raisins are made from red or green grapes, while sultanas are made from seedless green grapes. Raisins are typically dried in the sun or mechanically dried, while sultanas are dried using a special drying process that involves dipping the grapes in a solution to speed up the drying. In terms of taste, sultanas are generally sweeter and juicier than raisins.

Are currants healthier than raisins?
Raisins are grapes. They are dried grapes so there is no difference. Actually, since grapes are usually dried on iron, the raisin absorbs some of that iron and hence are "healthier" because of the iron content. PS. The same happens when you cook with iron skillets, only you need to eat a little vitamin C with your food because vitamin C helps your body absorb more of the iron.

What is the difference between red grapes and green grapes?
It is more than simply the colour that differentiates the two. In terms of what they are used for, green grapes can be made into sultanas or white wine, and red grapes can be made into raisins and red wine. They both have the same origin, and considering that there are so many variations of both, it is hard to say that one is different in a particular way to the other. But generally speaking, red grapes are better for memory retention and have a stronger taste than green; green grapes also tend to be sweeter, on average.

Are raisins high in cholesterol?
Eating raisins alone will not help you to lose weight. Raisins are dried grapes, and grapes have more sugar in them by weight than any other fruit. Whilst natural sugar (in fruit) is preferable to refined sugar (in chocolate), the fact is that raisins are still full of natural sugar, which the body will convert to fat after consumption. Eating raisins may help you to lose weight only as part of a calorie controlled diet. If you usually eat a chocolate bar in the afternoon but instead replace this with a handful of raisins, this will probably mean that you are consuming fewer calories (as chocolate contains refined sugar and fat and lots of artificial ingredients) than you usually do. But to see any noticeable difference, you will have to overhaul your whole diet. It would take a very long time to notice any weight loss from changing this one behaviour alone. Exercise combined with healthy eating is the best way to lose weight. To lose weight you have to consume fewer calories than you burn off, so that you start to burn body fat. So it's good to burn off loads of calories with exercise.
