Wine, Tea & Your Health

reSveraTrol: Resveratrol is found in grapes, peanuts and plants, such as Japanese knotweed. One of its most documented properties is as an antioxidant. Antioxidants are responsible for putting out of commission the inflammatory, cell-damaging and ultimately DNA-damaging effects of excessive free radicals, which are molecules, atoms or ions that are highly chemically reactive. This may explain why resveratrol has been shown to slow aging and combat a wide range of cancers such as breast cancer, liver cancer, prostate cancer and colon cancer, to name but a few.
Green Tea: An extract of the main active ingredient in green tea, EGCG, slows blood vessel formation in tumors, reducing the rate at which they can grow and spread. Green tea extract can also regulate cell division and growth and cause programmed cell death in DNA damaged cells.[i]
