The Red Wine Diet by Roger Corder
Wine drinkers are less prone to heart disease, diabetes, and dementia than non- wine drinkers. But what exactly is it about wine that keeps us healthy? In a landmark study, Roger Corder revealed that compounds called procyanidins are the key components of wine for preventing illness. Now, in The Red Wine Diet, he argues that drinking the right kinds of red wine and eating procyanidin-rich foods such as dark chocolate, apples, and berries can help us live to a ripe old age-while enjoying all the pleasures of life. And to round out his lifestyle plan, he includes fifty delicious recipes featuring foods that are high in procyanidins. Corder’s prescription is an easy pill to swallow: Drink red wine every day and live a long and healthy life.

To Your Good Health! by Thomas Stuttaford
In this book Dr Stuttaford sets out a balanced view on drinking and health: taken in moderation alcohol is good for you – taken to excess it can be disastrous. It is now well known that a moderate amount of alcohol is good for the coronary arteries: but it also helps to prevent strokes, lessens the likelihood of late-onset diabetes, acts as an anti-oxidant and also improves the sperm count. It even has a beneficial effect on the intellect, especially amongst the elderly. And it does matter what form the alcohol takes: a wine from France, for example, is likely to be more health-giving than the same grape variety grown in Chile.
