Ep 157
You’ve probably heard that a glass of red wine is “good for you” but how much of that is actually true?
The idea that red wine is “healthy” has been around for decades: from the French paradox, to antioxidants and longevity claims. It sounds convincing and honestly, it’s something a lot of people want to believe. But when you actually look at the research, most of it comes down to correlation, not causation. And that changes everything.
In this episode, I’m breaking down where this myth came from, what science actually supports, and why wine isn’t something you should ever consider medicine. We’ll also talk about what those “health benefits” really mean, what alcohol is actually doing in your body, and why wine is, at best, a trade-off and not a health strategy.
