Reasonable quantities of con-
sumed wine are beneficial to our
body due to wine's compounds.
Such as polyphenols that pre-
serve the cardiovascular system.
But on the other hand, wine can
be toxic when consumed daily
in huge quantities. Therefore,
it is not recommended to the
youth and those who get easily
addicted.
We have to know the wine, its
qualities to enjoy and respect
it. The level of wine consump-
tion culture should be raised,
for with it life standard will
raise too. Thus, the wine will
no longer be abused, which is
precisely what has earned the
Slovenes the label of »nation
of drunkards«.
