The subject of alcohol and health is complex. There is evidence that alcohol can be health-promoting, but more recent evidence has suggested it isn't healthy for humans in any amount. The ancient Greeks only drank their wine diluted. They believed that only barbarians would drink unmixed or undiluted wine as it would bring out a type of behavior that would cause mayhem.
In this episode, Dan speaks with Todd White, CEO of Dry Farm Wines, to discuss and compare the differences between conventional wines with natural wines - which tend to be lower in alcohol, calories, sugar, and additives, while higher in phytochemicals like polyphenols - as well as a discussion of the effects these different types of wine on health.
