that's interesting, although I always take these newspaper articles with a pinch of salt.0

It might be good for rats and if they find something in it they could squeeze into pill form that helps people, yay! I'll stick with no alcohol and some exercise for now.
This will make the red wine lovers happy, though.0 -
I drink a glass of red wine(5 oz.) every other day, eat dark chocolate on the days I don't drink and I've been losing great. But I always make sure it fits in my calories.
I drink it because I enjoy it.1 -

I applaud that, just goes to prove you don't have to cut out anything you enjoy in order to stay healthy.

I'll wait until my doctor tells me that a glass of wine a night helps lower cholesterol. I don't believe newspaper articles.0
-
I drink wine almost daily, usually red, though not exclusively. I love reading articles that tell me it's good for me, because I'd do it anyway. I have never had cholesterol issues, which isn't all that common at my age, and even more uncommon at my age with a strong family history of high cholesterol.
Is it too early to open a bottle?0 -
Had to laugh, the finding in the actual press release says the compound enhances exercise performance, and then they jump to the title of the article you posted that a glass of wine is equivalent to an hour in the gym. Journalism destroying science as per usual.0

Heh you're right!0

See I'm not sure about this, I once drank a couple of bottles of red wine and I could hardly walk. I reckon I would have killed myself in the gym0 -
Except the gym doesn't have a negative effect on your liver. They always leave that part out.
And also what auddii said.0 -

Actually studies show that all alcohol, even moderate, affects the liver. Having 1 drink a day is the same as having 7 at once one time a week to the liver. Can't remember where I read it. So I suppose you could take that with a grain of salt, but I'm personally on the cautious side of things when it comes to drugs and alcohol.
You're right about the gym also.0 -

I will take that with a grain of salt. Especially since "affects" =/= "negatively affects". Eating fruit "affects" the liver.0 -

I meant negatively effects. I'd said that in my first post so I figured it was implied.0 -

Yes, I know. Something you read somewhere at sometime but don't remember the source. Got it.
