Wine is one of the oldest drinks in our planet. Throughout the years it’s been discovered that red wine has a lot of health benefits, always consumed in moderation (doctors recommend one glass a day).

 

Red wine has a wide variety of polyphenols, which eliminate free radicals in the body. This is due to the grape selection and its fermentation process; that’s why a glass a day can keep the doctor away.

  1. It aids in lung functions and prevents lung cancer. Red wine also decreases cigarette effects regulating the damage in blood vessels.
  2. Red wine helps digestion after meals.
  3. It enhances brain function because it contains antioxidants that aid in blood flow.
