Benefits associated with non-alcoholic wine
Men can reap the heart benefits of wine — if they drink the non-alcoholic kind.
Researchers studied 67 men who had a high risk for heart problems.
The men drank either ten ounces of red wine, non-alcoholic wine, or gin each day.
They tried each beverage for four weeks at a time.
Researchers found no significant effect from red wine or gin; but when the men drank non-alcoholic wine, their risk for heart disease dropped by 14%, and the risk for stroke went down by 20%.
