Cooking For Health: Grapes & Their Juices
The news that drinking wine – particularly red wine – is associated with a lower risk of heart disease has received a big play. In fact, heart disease takes the least toll in countries where people drink it the most – France, in particular. Scientists suspect most of the benefits come from nonalcoholic flavonoids in red wine, particularly phenolics in grape skins. Some benefits of wine may also come from the alcohol, which raises "good" HDL cholesterol. Until more studies come in, scientists agree: don’t take up drinking to protect your heart. Since alcohol is linked to higher risks of some cancers, stick with purple grape juice or eat red and black grapes, which have more phenolics than green grapes.
How much do you need? Nutritionists suggest 2-4 servings of fruit a day. Drink wine in moderation.
