Red wine can improve health and increase longevity research has shown.Researchers have found that red wines rich in flavonoids are very good for our health. Flavonoids are best known for their antioxidant qualities and assists the body in resisting allergens, viruses and carcinogens.

Red wines also contain anxioxidants which is helps the body resist cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Syrah and Pinot Noir contain the highest concentrations of antioxidants and flavonoids.

White wines also contain flavonoids but not as much as red wines. We should stick to dryer red wines as they are most beneficial to health.

Paracelsus, the noted 16th-century Swiss physician wrote, “Wine is a food, a medicine and a poison – it’s just a question of dose.” It is really important that we don’t over indulge in it as too much alcohol is harmful to the body, a glass of red wine to our daily diet is enough.Too much wine can be detrimental to health.

Cardiovascular expert, Professor Roger Corder, has spent years studying the evidence of health benefits from red wine. In his new book, “The Wine Diet,” he says he is convinced that most of us should include red wine in our every day lifestyle.

Corder discovered what he eventually labeled the “French Paradox.” Specifically, he wondered why the French have a lower rate of heart disease despite the fact that their diet was extremely rich in fats.

He concentrated his research on the southwest portion of France, where life expectancy seemed to be highest.He discovered that the region produces very tannic local wines, which contain the highest procyanidin (antioxidant) content of any wines, worldwide. This led him to further research on the amazing medical benefits of red wine.

While wine may not be man’s ultimate elixir or fountain of youth, it certainly behooves us to consider adding a glass of wine or two to our daily diet – and raise a “toast” to our continued good health.

Red wine is fantastic, and there's benefits of drinking this wine, as well. I want to know which is the best budget red wine in Malaysia, so if you share this information with me now, I'd be grateful.
