5 Reasons Why Wine Is Good For You

4. Wineder Woman
Drinking wine has also been linked to preventing breast cancer in women. The chemicals found in the skin of red grapes cause a hormonal shift by reducing estrogen levels while increasing testosterone levels in premenopausal women. Caution is advised for those suffering from allergies as red wines contains histamines, but not to worry – if you’re prone to allergic reaction from wine, simply switch to white wine which has a much lower histamine content such as Sauvignon Blanc.

5. Wine-Wine Situation
Moderate wine-drinkers could also be protecting themselves against the onset of depression, as drinking wine can have a relaxing effect on the body. While too many glasses of wine is detrimental to the body and mind, moderate drinkers have been found to have a lower risk of suffering from brain-damaging diseases such as strokes and dementia. The very act of appreciating wine is referred to as ‘intelligent drinking’ because it involves our senses of smell, taste, and sight which is more likely to keep us grounded in the present moment while lifting our spirits.

Legendary wine critic Steven Spurrier once said “Wine is made to be drunk; if not everyday then it should at least be part of your life”. We wholeheartedly agree, and with a B.I.G. smile we can testify that enjoying wine has truly made us happier and more able to appreciate the finer things in life – but that may just be the wine talking.
