But first, I wanted to start my own website, writing about wine, a newly discovered passion.

Why A Little Glass Of Wine May Be Good For You? The benefits of wine is manifold. Most of us might know that it keeps the heart healthy, but it has other advantages as well. Moderate consumption of wine helps decrease mortality rate, reduces forgetfulness and boosts immunity as well. And here are some reasons why you should consider drinking wine: Preserves Memory Wine helps enhance memory, as research tells us. To prove the results quizzes were given to women in their 70s. Those who drank one glass or more every day scored better than those not drinking it. Wine helps prevent clots and also reduces inflammation of the blood vessels - both which prevent cognitive decline and heart diseases. Enhances the body’s defense against germs In one study, those who drink a glass of wine a day have almost 11 % lower chances of developing bacteria causing ulcers, gastritis and even stomach cancer. If you have half a glass daily, it will help guard against food poisoning, caused by Salmonella. Helps You Lose Weight Numerous studies have found that those who drink wine daily tend to have lower body mass because of a substance it contains called resveratrol. Moderate wine drinkers tend to have less abdominal fat than those who drink spirits. Alcohol is believed to help the body in burning calories even after 90 minutes of the consumption. Reduces Chances Of Ovarian Cancer When researchers compared women with ovarian cancer with those who didn’t, they came across a surprising result. One glass of wine a day seemed to reduce the risk of disease by almost 50 percent. The antioxidants or phytoestrogens which exhibit high anti-cancer properties are found in wine though not other forms of alcohol.
Better Bones Those women who drink wine moderately tend to have higher bone mass than those who are abstainers. The estrogen level is boosted by alcohol which is responsible for slowing the body’s destruction of bones. Prevents Blood Sugar Those women who drink one or two glasses are less likely to develop type-2 diabetes. It is propounded that wine reduces insulin resistance in diabetic patients. In The End Most of the leading wine brands in India are available just everywhere so for those who like it may remain in good health as well.
