Contrary to many preconceived ideas, supported by scientific arguments, consuming wine in moderation is not good for your health.
- A FLAWED ANALYSIS
It is true that small consumers of wine are generally healthier than large consumers (which is easy to understand), but also than abstainers, which has led to the association of moderate wine consumption with protection of the body, particularly against cancer.
However, recent studies have shed another light: those who drink little wine generally have a higher socio-professional level and practice more frequent physical activities than heavy drinkers or abstainers. This explains their better health.
A study by the National Cancer Institute (INCA) shows that Far from having a protective effect against cancer, wine consumption, even moderate, increases the risks..
- WINES ARE INCREASINGLY ALCOHOLIC
In a few years, the alcohol content of wines has increased to sometimes reach 15°.
If, fifty years ago, wines had an alcohol content of 8 to 9°, it is rare today to find them with less than 12°.
The main reason for this development is economic: to shorten maceration times, many producers add chemicals and beet sugar which increases the alcohol content.
In addition to its negative impact on the body, this high alcohol level promotes addiction and therefore alcohol dependence.
From now on, wine should no longer be considered a product for everyday consumption, but should be reserved for occasional occasions.
