About This Food

Description

Red wine has been enjoyed throughout the ages. And recent research shows that drinking red wine may be beneficial in moderation due to its high levels of antioxidants-including a phytonutrient called resveratrol.

Because grapes are one of the crops most heavily sprayed with pesticides, choosing organic wine is good way to reduce your exposure to these health-harming chemicals.

Visit The Organic Wine Company for a number of delicious wines produced in organic vineyards.

Selecting & Storing

Culinary Caution™! Chronic intake of high levels of alcohol may lead to elevations in blood pressure, an increased risk of heart disease, liver and brain damage and other serious physical and social problems. Alcohol can interfere with the body’s ability to absorb calcium from food, leading to an increased risk for osteoporosis. Alcohol also depletes the body of b vitamins and causes dehydration. Wine may trigger migraines in sensitive individuals. Do not drink if you are pregnant or nursing. If you do imbibe, do so in moderation.
