Red vine is a healthier option than white wine due to its greater amount of polyphenols. In addition, red vines are known to eliminate toxins present in fatty foods, such as red meat. However, we must not forget that red wine is an alcoholic beverage, and like any alcoholic beverage it should be drunk in moderation, since alcohol modifies many functions within the body. It is estimated that the five-ounce glass of red wine has the same alcoholic content as 24 ounces of beer.
