Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Grape, particularly in the form of grape juice or grape skin, has been traditionally used in some cultures as a home remedy for bronchial congestion. The reasoning behind this practice is largely anecdotal and based on folk medicine, where grapes are believed to have expectorant properties—meaning they help to loosen and expel mucus from the respiratory tract. This is sometimes attributed to the presence of antioxidants and certain phytochemicals, such as resveratrol and flavonoids, which are abundant in grapes and have been associated with general anti-inflammatory effects. However, there are no robust clinical studies or scientific consensus supporting the effectiveness of grape or its extracts specifically for bronchial congestion. Most modern medical sources do not list grape as a proven remedy for this condition. The evidence is thus rated as 1 out of 5, reflecting weak support based on tradition rather than rigorous scientific validation. If someone experiences persistent or severe bronchial congestion, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for evidence-based treatments.
