Antioxidants are a superfood for the body. According to Mayo Clinic,they protect your cells against free radicals, which may play a role in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. But what is the best wine for antioxidants?

Why Antioxidants are good for you

Free radicals are molecules produced when your body breaks down food or when you’re exposed to tobacco smoke or radiation. Free radicals play a part in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. The best way to fight them naturally is antioxidants. Antioxidants come in a wide range of food and drinks but for right now we are just focusing on one type of drink.

Besides just being tasty grapes are a great source of antioxidants. Grapes contain vitamin C, beta-carotene, quercetin, lutein, lycopene, and ellagic acid, which are powerful antioxidants as well. This just another reason why wines in moderation are a good source for healthy living.
