I agree. Really, how much damage is a glass or two of wine on a regular basis going to do? If you enjoy it then drink it. I don't drink but not because I think a glass or two of wine is going to damage my health and if irrefutable evidence found that there was some miniscule health benefit to drinking wine I would not take it up but that's just a personal decision not based on what wine might or not do for my health. This kind of research strikes me as pointless. A phrase that keeps coming to mind when I read about the latest nutrition research is what Richard Feynman said about the term "nutritional research" that it was an oxymoron.
