Is drinking a bottle of red every night a bit much or normal, i'm just not sure whether it is safe... It is much. By yourself a bottle should have 6 glasses. A 1 or 2 glasses with dinner a bottle should last 3-6 days. One glass per day is probably better than 2. Two glasses per day is definitely better than 3. |

Red wine
Someone told me that Pinot Noir was quite beneficail as well,something to do with resversatol. You may be thinking of the film "Sideways" where the 2 alcholics praised that particular wine. Its nice to keep a bottle of wine in the house and have a glass with lunch but...somehow two glasses taste better than one and it goes further and then the day is wasted and I get indigestion when I drink more than 3 glasses of wine. I seem to like it when Im doing it but feel crappy later. Two or more glasses of wine change my reflexes and make me sleepy, three or more have a bad influence on my digestion. So I don't keep wine in the house except for special occasions. I wish it were easier to bring home one glass of wine. Its impossible to do that and I feel extremely uncomfortable in Bars so wine is not part of my cuisine. |

I simply don't drink, period. dkw |

I just eat grapes. Same with all fruit. No orange juice for me either. The problem for me with juices is that you can consume a lot of calories very quickly and not feel like you've eaten anything. Nutritionists seem to also recommend eating the fruit rather than juices. There is one product though that might be beneficial for some and that is the orange juice with added calcium. Apparently, even though there is a lot of calcium in milk, it doesn't get absorbed so easily, but does in the acidic environment of orange juice. Still not enough of a reason for me to drink the stuff since I don't have any osteoporosis. dkw |

Oh my, what nice quality of life to share a liter of wine with someone at a meal. There has been a dear poster here named Chris who lost at least a hundred pounds (if I remember correctly) and she is a wine lover and used to tell us the names of the wines she tasted. I think a glass or two of wine is a fine addition to one's diet if it doesnt do any noticeable harm to one's day or body. It makes me sleepy and gives me indigestion. Does it do that to you? |
