Cheers To Your Health, Courtesy Of Wine

Loaded With Antioxidants

When it comes to battling free radicals, which cause cell damage and can lead to numerous critical health problems such as cancer, wine could be your first line of defense. Research has indicated wine is full of antioxidants that attack free radicals and stop the chain reaction that results in vital molecules the body needs from being damaged. One study conducted by the University of Barcelona found the phenols in white wine had an equal, if not a higher concentration of antioxidants when compared to red wine. However, both offer numerous components of antioxidants that the body needs. This is an interesting conclusion from this study, as most wine drinkers typically believe red wine provides the most nutrients for the body, as well as the most health benefits.
