Wine, Wine, Good for your Heart

The more you drink it, the more you...get the health benefits. OK, maybe that's not the best way to start off our Valentine's Day post, but we love hearing people rave about how great red wine is for your heart, and every time we read an article about it, it does our hearts good. And what better day to have good heart happenings that VDay?

We've found another interesting note about an experiment involving mice, fatty foods and a chemical in wine over at the Sporting Life. Not only is the article they're discussing interesting, we liked their take on it too:

Actually, a whole history of the popularization of the ‘red wine good for you’ theory is given here. In a surprise twist, from 1992 until now, the theory has traveled the opposite road to most similar hypotheses. Rather than being a solid theory, slowly eroded by science into ridicule, it started is life as the crackpot ravings of drunken Frenchmen and then built up a weight of scientific evidence.

One of the best cheap wines that I have tasted is Oliver Soft Red. Sometimes RiteAid has it on sale for under $7.00... I do not believe every RiteAid carries it.. But it is a great tasting red wine for the money.. Trust me..
