Health benefits of drinking wine

Do you like to enjoy a glass of wine with the dinner? We have good news for you, not only that a glass of wine can de-stress you after a hard day at work, it also has some health benefits.

Antioxidants that can be found in wine have shown positive effects on human health. Apparently it’s not indifferent which one are you drinking. According to numerous studies, red wines are healthier than the white ones, because they contain more antioxidants, especially tannin. 

Tannin prevents cardiovascular diseases and decrease the number of cancer cells. It’s also the one that gives a specific dry and astringent taste to the wine. An antioxidant polyphenol lowers the level of bad cholesterol (LDL) and prevents cardiovascular diseases.

Resveratrol, that can be found in the skin of red grapes, has the most health benefits among antioxidants presented in wine. Resveratrol lowers blood glucose, sharpens memory, and reduces the risk of heart diseases. Since heart diseases and depression have similar protective and risk factors, Spanish researchers came to the conclusion that wine may even reduce the risk of depression.
