Wine and Your Health

Have you heard the latest news about wine and your health?  The latest research is showing that people who drink moderately - no more than two glasses of wine (or beer) a day - are much less likely to suffer from heart disease than people who don't drink at all!  Can you believe it? 

When I first heard this on NPR several days ago, my ears perked up.  Could drinking a couple glasses of wine a day actually be healthier than not drinking at all?  This research said yes!

The report went further and stated that moderate drinking combined with regular exercise helped lower your risk of heart disease even more!  And those who exercised without any moderate drinking had lower risks, but not as low as those who simply drank moderately.

This, as in so many things, leads us to the crucial philosophy that should guide so many of our actions:

All in moderation!

Enjoy your wine!
