Wine is a high-end beverage with multiple nutritional ingredients. Moderate drinking of wine can directly affect the human nervous system and increase muscle tension. In addition, the various amino acids, minerals and vitamins contained in wine can be directly absorbed by the human body.

2. The special effects of wine on women

Women who understand red wine often have skin as soft as silk. The reason is that what women like most is its magical effect on beauty and health.

The beauty and anti-aging functions of red wine come from the strong antioxidant content in the wine.

The fans of Red Carpet Beauty affectionately call it the "drinkable mask".

Another benefit of red wine is weight loss. Each liter of wine contains 525 calories, but these calories are only equivalent to 1/15 of the average daily calorie requirement of the human body. After drinking, wine can be directly absorbed and digested by the human body and can be completely consumed within 4 hours without causing weight gain. Therefore, people who drink wine regularly can not only replenish the water and various nutrients needed by the human body, but also help to lose weight. Red wine contains high levels of potassium tartrate, potassium sulfate and potassium oxide, which can prevent edema and maintain the acid-base balance in the body.
