Winos Rejoice: Red Wine May Fight Cancer PDF Print E-mail

Good news, winos: the list of health benefits attributed to drinking red wine just got longer.

A new pancreatic cancer study found that an antioxidant in grape skins called resveratrol can make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation while making healthy tissue less sensitive – a win-win for cancer patients, it seems.

Resveratrol is produced in grape skins to fight fungal infection, including exposure to yeast during fermentation, and also exists in non-alcoholic grape products, like red grape juice. The levels vary depending on the type of grape and growing season.

Though scientists say more research is needed, that bottle of merlot sitting on your counter may turn out to be a promising anti-cancer agent. So, go ahead, pour yourself another glass.

Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
