Red wine & health:
There are no negative effects on the body, if red wine is not consumed excessively. In order to get the health benefits of red wine, ensure that you consume it moderately. Certain compounds in red wine can play a very important role in protecting the heart. Red wine is rich in antioxidants that prevent artery damage. It is a heart-healthy drink that can be enjoyed during evening meals. Red wine can help the heart in the following ways:
* It reduces the "bad" cholesterol (low density lipoprotein).
* Red wine boosts production of high density lipoprotein, also called "good" cholesterol.
* It decreases blood clotting. Doctors often recommend that red wine taken along with dinner is good for heart health.
Stay healthy ..
Wine is my favorite and of-course alcohol in moderation has its benefits. Except for the 1st sentence, I agree to the rest of the article. In this case +ve effects outweigh the -ve ones.
