Karky.....
I spoke to your liver & kidney's.....they asked me to give you a message: F YOU TOO!!!!! :cheeky:
Let me run this by you, I used to make wine. It's all a cycle. The sugars in the fruit "ferment"....what is fermentation? It's merely the process where a mold (yeast) consumes the sugar and the byproduct is two things: carbon dioxide and alcohol.
You see...just as our byproduct is urine & fecal matter, so too does the yeast have a byproduct: gas & urine (carbon dioxide & alcohol). The fermentation continues to occur until the toxicity reaches about 7% (different tolerances for different strains of yeast)...then, when the alcohol level gets high enough, the yeast literally suffocates & dies in it's own toxic soup. Basically, alcohol is yeast-piss and the toxic effects are what mess you up. It taxes your kidney's & liver, depletes your body of vitamins & minerals....or as they say on SouthPark; it's bad for you, m'kay?
OH....what's that? wine is good for you? Newsflash: the same tannins & antioxidants can be ENTIRELY derived equally from eating dark grapes.
Hey, I'm not suggesting you not get shi!t-faced every now & then, just be aware what it's doing to ya.
