Does wine in moderation have an affect on health? For those who believe that wine has a negative effect or no affect on one’s health, it should be noted that North Carolina’s Department of Commerce website has added an article “Wine and Health.” The article also includes a link to M.D. News’s article “The Health Benefits of Muscadine Grapes, Wines and Nutraceuticals.” The wineries in North Carolina’s Piedmont and Coastal regions are serious about the wines they produce including the Muscadine grape wines. The climate along the coast and south is perfect for growing Muscadine grapes.

While positive and negative wine health news can be found to substantiate the pros and cons of drinking wine, as wine lovers it’s heartening to know that a state is confident enough to post about the positive effects of drinking red wine in moderation.
