Is red wine really the health elixir it's touted to be, or just another myth perpetuated by savvy marketers? Join me, Christie Walker, on the Catholic Sobriety Podcast as we dissect the health claims surrounding red wine. Learn about its supposed benefits like protecting against Alzheimer's, reducing cancer risk, alleviating depression, and even improving bone density.

We'll explore the origins of these claims, including the famed French paradox, and uncover the truth behind resveratrol, that celebrated antioxidant found in higher quantities in red wine compared to its white counterpart. Together, we'll navigate the importance of moderation and the essential need for independent research to separate fact from fiction.

Make informed choices about your health and well-being with insights that go beyond the headlines. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that could change your perspective on that nightly glass of red wine.

I'm here for you. I'm praying for you. You are NOT alone!
