Wine would be harmful to the skin

It is one of our best allies during the summer holidays, we consume it at noon on the terrace, at the end of the afternoon by the swimming pool or during the sunset at the end of the day:wine ! A sweet, fresh, strong, woody or even fruity alcohol that is consumed regularly. Well beware of it, because if we abuse it too much it could well cause us harm. A study conducted by the "Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology" confirms this. The survey was conducted among 83,000 women between 1991 and 2005 and aims to compare the condition of the skin of these women according to their alcohol consumption.

Not very reassuring results

The study conducted by the American Academy of Dermatology concludes that 5000 women, out of the selected total, suffer from chronic rosacea. These are redness that can appear on all parts of the face. Beyond 5 glasses per week, this risk of rosacea increases by 49%. Wine would also promote dilation of the vessels on the surface of the skin, the appearance of comedones (pimples on the face) and it would make our complexion dull. A very convincing reason to start using fresh homemade fruit juices, for healthy skin!
