Ann Semple e-mailed me and said that actually a man is only supposed to have
two glasses of wine weekly and that i should set the record straight with
Clayart. Ann- I have found that you can find evidence for everything you
believe in. You believe in Giffen grips- there are believers. you believe in
broccoli, sour cherry juice, chicken soup. There are believers. I typed into
Google "health benefits of red wine" and there was more info than I could
read in a week. All of it- pro wine.
A man has to believe in something- I believe i'll have another glass of
wine.
Cheers,
Tony
P.S Here is a pragraph or two of the first article on Google.

A mountain of scientific evidence is building up to support the contention
that two glasses of red wine a day have beneficial health results.
From the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and
Parkinson's Disease to the prevention of cardiovascular
diseases, from preventing food poisining, dysentery and so-called
"traveler's diarrhea" to reduction in human mortality rates, the benefits
of red wine consumption are piling up. Indeed, more than 100 scientific
reports have been published since 1991 providing strong evidence
that moderate wine consumption can be part of a healthy lifestyle.

Possibly the most notable of these studies, if only because it was the focus
of two separate CBS 60 Minutes segments, is the so-called
"French Paradox." The French eat 30% more fat than Americans but suffer 40%
fewer heart attacks. The evidence that the French
consumption of red wine with their meals countermands the fattier diet seems
compelling in light of subsequent research. The largest study,
the Copenhagen City Heart Study, which monitored 13,000 men and women aged
30 to 70 between 1976 and 1988, found compelling
evidence of the connection between moderate wine consumption and a sharp
reduction in human mortality rates. This study found that
daily wine consumers have literally half the risk of dying at any given age
when compared to those who never drink wine.
