Wine and Health Updates

Friday January 16, 2009
Recent research points to the possibility that both obesity and Leukemia may be positively affected by grapeseed extracts. More studies are needed to verify if merely drinking wine (or grapejuice, though not as fun) has the same impact as grapeseed extract supplementation.
