Ah yes, the health benefits of red wine. That's why this functioning alcoholic switched from whiskey and beer to wine 10 years ago, and if 1-2 glass a day are good for you, 6-7 must be even better, right? Red wine may have been good for my heart and liver (it tested ok after many years of averaging a bottle and a half of wine per night), but it still left me hung over, grumpy and moody the day after, and re-wired my brain in very unhealthy ways, which all alcohol consumption in those quanities will do. In addition, since nobody wants to admit to drinking that much, I became a regular liar and deceiver, and generally behaved in ways that I am ashamed of and would never want to repeat.

There are much better ways to get the anti-oxident and other benefits of red wine. I'm really getting into green tea and berry juices. All the benefits with none of the ugliness. Cheers my friend!
