Apparently the health effects (regarding LDL reduction, etc.) are found in the skin. That's what I meant.

Post by: webcake on July 06, 2009, 04:59:32 AM: I don't but i have read a study where they suggest that drinking red gfrape juice/eating the skin and seeds of red grapes have the same benefits as drinking red wine but without the alcohol.

I gotta go with Show on this one. Make it white; make it cold; and make it a big glass. Boxed is fine. I'll leave the 'expensive wine' for others. :)

Really? You feel ill after one glass? Maybe try a white wine. I don't think they are nearly as "harsh" on the stomach for people not used to drinking very much.

X2.

Not only that, but the alcohol helps preserve and "emulsify" the reservatrol.... research it. heavy red wine > "MonaVie" and all these shitty juices...

best wine for health = bordeaux and portugese unfiltered wines..

I was asking myself the same question regarding port ;D... not sure what the extra fermentation / sugar would break / help.

I want to believe that it is good or even "better" ;D

But if the health benefits are identical, does it matter?
