to your health!
I thought this would be a perfect friday night post:Red wine is high in a compound called resveratrol. Resveratrol has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Red wine consumption helps increase HDL, the good cholesterol. It is also believed to lower the risk of heart disease. For those of you who don't or can't enjoy red wine, resveratrol can also be found in peanuts, mullberries and raspberries.
A glass or two of red wine can be considered part of a heart-healthy diet, so enjoy and cheers!

For those that like to cook with red wine . . . resveratrol, although light and oxygen sensitive, is heat stable, so cooking with wine retains the healthful aspect. The downside is that many wines i've tasted actually tasted better when they have been slightly aired out.
