Red wine antioxidants?

Question

Does anyone know how many antioxidants are in a glass of red wine?

Answer 1

There are very few, but no one can answer your question because it is not precise enoought. Which wine and what size measure of wine.

You can say that, for example, that it is likely that a Merlot grown at a high altitude in Chile will have more than a Pinot Noir grown in the Finger Lakes, as the former has thicker skins and gets more intense sun light than the latter , but the only way to tell howmany would be to do a scientific analysis of the wine in question, since amounts will vary from year to year and from vineyard to vineyard.

If you want to consume antioxidents, then drinking wine soley for that purpose isn't a good idea. As part of a healthy diet then wine certainly plays its part in maintining good physical and mental wellbeing, but if you want medicine, then take medicine, not wine.
