Hi. I was doing a research on the net and
found out that red wine has some chemical
that is preventing the liver cancer. There
is a study that shows that the number of
French people with liver cancer is lower
compared with the numbers in the other
countries where the red wine is not so
much consummated. Can someone tell me more
about that ! thanks

Couple of years ago, scientists identified
a chemical cancer-related substance:
trans-Resveratrol, often called Res. It
was also discovered how a chemical found
in red wine helps to fight cancer. The
experiments showed that Res is able to
promote apoptosis, a process that the body
uses to kill cancer cells and other cells
it needs to get rid of and how grapes may
protect the body from some diseases.
