Heart Health
Red wine, in moderation, has long been thought of as heart healthy. The alcohol and certain substances in red wine called antioxidants may help prevent coronary artery disease, the condition that leads to heart attacks.
Reduced risk of colon Cancer
A Stony Brook University study involving 2,291 individuals published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology monitored the health of participants over a 4 year period. The results revealed that moderate consumption of red wine cut the risk of colon cancer by 45%. The study was published in 2005.

Increased Life Span
A Finnish study involving 2,468 men over a 29-year period revealed that wine drinkers have a 34% lower mortality rate than beer or spirit drinkers. The study was published in the Journal of Gerontology in 2007.
