Drink more red wine for health

[RandyR]

Red wine has long been hailed for its potential health benefits, from slowing aging to inhibiting cancer, due to a plant compound called resveratrol. Scientists even think resveratrol may have the potential to fight fat.

 

“Resveratrol should be a very effective anti-obesity agent. It causes your mitochondria, your cells’ fat burners, to burn faster,” said Clifton Baile, head of UGA's Obesity Initiative. But battling fat with resveratrol would likely take thousands of glasses of wine per day.

Any chance that Resveratrol is found in bourbon too.

I just read a study on this not to long ago and it said you can get the same benefits from drinking grape juice.

Isn't wine made from grapes? So if we're drinking wine, aren't we drinking grape juice?

A tablespoon a day of pure virgin grape seed oil is supposed to have the same benefits but W/O the nasty side effects. ... .......BRING ON THE WINE
