The Really? series is one of my favorite things "The New York Times" regularly does.
Every week, it takes on a widely known health rumor, such as:
- whether or not thunder storms contribute to heart attacks (it’s possible)
- if using mayonnaise in food to be consumed outside really makes the food spoil more quickly (answer: no).
This week, the Times takes on whether dark grape juice has the same cardiovascular health benefits as red wine.
What do you think? If it’s true, will you switch from a glass of red wine a day to a glass of 100 percent dark grape juice?
