Red wine?
I have been doing a lot of research since I stopped Premarin to make sure I get all the supplements I need. My dr. was especially concerned about bone loss. Has anyone heard about the benefits of red wine? It is supposed to have a marked bone density increase of persons drinking 1-2 glasses of red wine a day. Also it lowers breast cancer risk because the study showed that it reduced dense breast tissue also. On another site it was stated that red wine has phytoestrogens that help with menopausal symptoms. Actually the bone density thing said red or white, but white wine has the opposite effect with breast tissue so red is only suggested.
Anybody else every hear of this?
