Over the past years, one of the more
cheering health messages is: 'Drinking wine in moderation can be good
for your health'.
Researches have found that wine can
lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, prevent pancreatic cancer,
etc., and even promote weight loss. However many (mistakenly) tend to
associate all the wine's benefits to the red ones.
The main difference between white and
red wine is how the skin of the grape is used. While with red, the
skins are crushed with the pulp, with white the skins are separated
out. However white grapes present other types of poly-phenols which
are also known to promote health benefits.
Recently, Italian studies found that
Pinot Grigio as well Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc are effective
anti-bacterial agents. This mean that they can not only protect
against but also destroy bacteria.
