That's Fit

The cardiovascular benefits of drinking red wine have been known for quite some time. Reveratrol, found in grape seeds and skin, has been shown to improve HDL (good) cholesterol and prevent blood clotting, just as flavonoids, antioxidants of which wine grapes are plentiful, have been linked to a reduction in blood clots and plaque formation in arteries. This is all great news for your heart, something that should make you smile.

Fortunately, wine has also been shown in an Italian study to protect your teeth by eliminating the bacteria that cause gum disease and cavities. This effect is not limited to red wine, as white wine was found to be just as effective in warding off these bacteria.

And not to worry, wine won't stain your teeth (especially white wine). A little rinsing with water after you imbibe is all it takes to make your teeth pearly white again.
