They have found the first evidence that the drink made from fermented apple juice is good for your health. It is packed with chemicals that help protect against cancer, heart disease and other age related conditions. Apple wine, one of England􀆳s oldest alcoholic drinks, has long been thought to be beneficial to health, but there was no proof. Now scientists have confirmed there are high levels of health⁃improving antioxidants (抗氧化剂) in the wine. Half a pint of apple wine in moderation delivers the same amount of antioxidants as a glass of red wine, recognized as having health benefits. Antioxidants can “get rid of” substance called free radicals (自由基), naturally produced in the body. Dr. Caroline Walker, a scientist at Brewing Research international survey, said, “A diet rich in antioxidants may help to protect against disease and our research confirms apple wine has the same levels of antioxidants as red wine. It could be well claimed that a glass of apple wine a day will keep the doctor away. But it is important that no one drink beyond the recommended daily intake of the alcohol, which for women is two to three units and for men, three to four units, an average apple wine having about 2.5 units per pint.” Separate trials on volunteer apple wine drinkers at the Institute of Food Research, Norwich, details of which are published in the latest Journal of Nutrition, showed the antioxidants are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream, enhancing the health benefit. John Thatcher, chairman of the National Association of Cider Markers, said, “I have spent a lifetime making apple wine, enjoying a regular glass or two, and now I can enjoy it all the more knowing it is helping keep me healthy.” 本文介绍了苹果酒对人体健康的益处。 1.What does the first paragraph suggest?
