Why You Should Drink Wine Every Day To Enhance Your Well Being

Sunday, September 19th, 2010

There are a couple of reasons why you should drink wine everyday and these are quite valid, researched points that many scientists and health practitioners agree upon. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should drink wine everyday or you should rather avoid it, read on to find out what are the benefits of consuming wine in moderation.

There are several major studies that show the fact that women of ages 70 and above have a better memory retention when they drink one glass of wine with their meal than those that stopped drinking altogether. So wine in moderation not only is excellent for better memory, but it is also great for overall health in general.

In addition, consuming just one glass of red wine helps with stopping blood clots from forming, while at the same time reducing any inflammations of the blood vessels. People who have higher cholesterol levels can easily reduce it by drinking just one glass of wine. This is because it increases the level of good cholesterold, which prevents arteries from becoming clogged.

Not only that but people that are a bit overweight should drink some wine per day as it reduces the body mass index. Also the alcohol has the reputation of burning the calories faster, so one single glass can burn up to 90 calories right away. Of course, drinking in excess won’t burn more calories, as that law doesn’t apply here.

The resveratrol that is contained mostly in the red wine helps with reducing the risk of various cancer types through its anti cancer properties. The antioxidants are found on the skin and seeds of red grapes, which is why a glass of red wine is favored over a glass of white wine. Again, it is a lot to be said about drinking in moderation and not overindulging. So if you’ve been on the fence about drinking just a bit of wine along with your lunch or dinner, you can do it, but if you have any health conditions, make sure to discuss it with your doctor first.

For whiskey, the best is to serve it through a Godinger Dubling whiskey decanter. For decanting your red wine, use a Nachtmann Vivendi wine decanter.
