Yet another reason to drink red wine! Not only is red wine good for a woman’s sex life, but it may be good for her waist line as well .A recent article published by Reuters suggests that drinking wine, especially red wine may be good for a woman’s waistline.


The study started out with 20,000 trim middle aged and older women. Overtime women who drank alcohol in moderation put on less weight and were less apt to become overweight as compared to non-drinkers. Red wine seems best at keeping a woman’s weight in check, yet wine, beer and some spirits also have some benefit.

And there’s more- in a previous article “Wine, Women and Sex” it was noted that American women who drink wine prefer red wine over white according to Wine Spectator . And why do they drink? The majority said they drink because of the taste and because it goes well with their meals. Another portion, 11% of women say they drink because it’s fashionable. 97% of women believe that wine drinking is even healthy.

Even more interesting was a study conducted by the University of Florence, surveying 800 women between ages 18 and 50 on their sexual satisfaction. Women who drink two glasses of wine a day scored an average of 27.3 out of a possible 36 points on the Female Sexual Function Index. Women who drank less wine had scored a 25.9 average. Non-drinkers averaged 24.4. Researchers were careful to make this comment. While these finding need to be interpreted with some caution, it never less suggests a potential relationship between red wine consumption and better sexuality. Hmmm!

Interpret the data how you see fit. In the meantime, I say this may be enough evidence for me.

Rock on!
