A 5 oz Glass: The Health Secrets of Red Wine for Women

There is a profound difference between women and men and how they enjoy and experience wine, as well as how they receive health benefits and risks. My patients continued to ask me for any up-to-date information on this topic. They know of my background as a chemist and gynecologist and expect me to have up-to-date answers to their questions about the health benefits of wine - specifically for them individually. They told me that I should write a book to help all women reach clarity on this very interesting and important topic. This book is intended to be for you ... the female wine drinker... to help you understand the best way to enjoy the wine experience while achieving the maximum health benefits. This book is also for you, her healthcare provider - to have the latest knowledge to help her achieve her goals.

About the Author
I am a board certified obstetrician/gynecologist and I have practiced for 30 years. In 1981, early in my career, it was common practice to encourage patients to minimize alcohol as there were medical risks. In my first years in practice, my father died relatively young at age 74 from ruptured esophageal varices, a complication of excessive alcohol intake. In the last 20 years, the increasing research and data on the health benefits of alcohol, especially red wine, have become more apparent. As I continued to follow the literature and research, my own interest grew not only because I am an active medical practitioner but also because I am a trained chemist (PhD) and an experienced wine maker. The increasing knowledge and growing insight of the health benefits of wine reminded me of a story told about Albert Einstein. When asked by his assistant why he gave the same physics exam two years in a row to the same class of students, he responded: "Simple! The answers have changed!"
