He says healthy because it reduces stress relaxation feels good plus the nutrients. So Marijuana and some drugs are healthy too like CBD in moderation. I'm over 20 years alcohol and drug free but I remember when I used to smoke and drink a little I was happier healthier and more social. My employment career prevents me from doing any drugs.
Red wine is considered healthy because it is an antioxidant. Meaning it helps to reduce free radicals . Free radicals are harmful for the cells as it causes cell injury by destroying cell membranes. Free radical injury is directly related to aging or premature aging. Also related to causing cancers or malignancies.
I know the quality of wine depends upon the winery and the location. In general, is wine healthier and more organic if produced in Italy compared to the United States?
Thanks Dr. Jockers! I have a glass of wine with dinner on weekends and only buy wine that is organic without the added sulfates in them. I only enjoy drinking white or a Rose. I definitely will check them out.
Because I'd researched & found that white wines have more sugar content, I've usually chosen red wine (when I splurge & have a glass). If I want it more fruity and light tasting, I will add a drop of my citrus essential oil. What are your organic, sulfite free go to's and where do you find them, Linda? 😊
@@lindajohnson4676 good morning Linda! We have a place here that sells organic wines. I’m not a big drinker so I’ll have to research the wines that I liked. I really enjoy Rose wines that are from Provence..
Good for you. I quit drinking in 2007 and didn't even have a problem... it just made me tired. Little did I know I had a fungal infection which increased candida in my body. Alcohol is the worst, it's a gateway drug causes you to be drunk and not think straight. Keep going and stay strong .
@@valerie4912 I have to be honest Valerie. I've been going through a Divorce and didn't sleep for 5 or 6 months. The pastor I listen to is the shepherds chapel on RU-vid and he said you could try a little wine if you couldn't sleep. I tried a little bit of wine as I was mainly a beer drinker before . It worked at 1st but then it got to be two glasses and then 3 .It did kill the pain of me thinking..... But be forewarned it's only a band-aid. It takes away your reality and there are spirits in the bottle. Whatever you do don't go back. I went 12 years without drinking in never missed it. I lost a lot of friends over it too . Believe me your heart and your mind and God will build you up and make you stronger and people will respect you more for not drinking alcohol. Take care and stay strong ! God bless you .
