The hardest part of reducing my alcohol consumption is that I love red wine so much. The flavor, the aroma, the acidity, everything. I have stopped drinking all alcohol except red wine because of the health effects. I would be delighted to have a way to drink wine without any intoxication.



Red wine being healthy is a myth.

But misunderstood, see below…


GP is saying they have stopped drinking most alcohol (all except red wine) because of the [negative] health effects.


I know red wine is just as bad for me as any other alcohol, which is to say quite bad, and in any dose. I meant I've largely quit because of that. But I just can't quit you, Red Wine.


It has health benefits. The alcohol in it is no better for you than any other alcohol.
