Flu season is here in full force, so it was fun to see this article in the Wine Spectator magazine, "Red Wine Chemical Cuts Flu Risk - Quercetin reduces susceptibility to influenza, especially after exercise." Although the research was conducted in mice, I'm hopeful that there's some benefit to be found in humans. The research was published in the American Journal of Physiology—Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology. I got my flu shot several weeks ago and hope to avoid catching the flu. But if I do, know that I'll be swilling some red wine, cheers!
