Wine in Health and Disease Prevention - by Victor R Preedy (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

It is often said that wine in moderation can have health benefits, but a definitive scientific resource exploring this topic has been lacking until now. Wine in Health and Disease Prevention, Second Edition addresses both the benefits and concerns associated with consumption of wine and wine components, especially related to cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological health. This comprehensive volume offers the balanced view necessary to understand the reality of today's findings and the potential of tomorrow's research in wine and health. Wine in Health and Disease Prevention, 2nd Edition is the single most comprehensive volume needed to understand the effect of wine on overall health. This is an essential reference for graduate and post-graduate students and researchers studying wine science, nutrition, alcoholic beverages, and public health. Dieticians and clinicians, as well as those working in the winemaking industry, will also benefit from this invaluable resource.
