Is Wine Good for You Now? Build a Better Relationship with Food & Stay Sharp

from The Wellness Scoop · host The Wellness Scoop

Is wine actually good for you now? It’s a headline that’s everywhere, but what does the research really say? In this episode, we unpack the nuance behind the story, looking at alcohol, longevity and why the bigger picture matters more than any single drink. We also explore how to build a healthier, more balanced relationship with food, moving away from rigid rules towards a way of eating that feels sustainable, enjoyable and supportive of long-term health. Plus, a fascinating new study on “super-agers” offers a hopeful perspective on brain health, suggesting that staying mentally sharp for longer may be more possible than we think. An uplifting, empowering episode focused on helping you feel good, think clearly and support your wellbeing. Send your questions for our weekly Q&A to ⁠[email protected]⁠.
