The alcoholic drinks are generally said to be very bad for one’s health. The truth of the matter is that there are some types of booze, which may even improve it. Let us look at wine for instance. It may very well make the blood less likely to clot, due to its anticoagulation effect.

On the other hand, the spirits do not have the same benefits. The first thing that must make you question yourself about the effects of spirits is the thought that are in fact purified or extracted alcohol. The process of distilling alcohol is based on the heating a fermented liquid. The liquid will then disperse in the air, practically changing from a liquid state to a gas or vapor. Eventually, it is squeezed back into its liquefied form. The outcome of this whole process can only be the spirit! You can even make spirits by increasing the alcohol content of a wine and decreasing its liquid substance.

Depending on the fermenting material that is used in the process of fermentation and distillation, the spirits include several distinct types of alcoholic drinks: brandy, gin, vodka and fortified wines. You probably know that brandy is made from fermented grape sap. The booze contents of brandy are generated from a meticulous distillation process of grape juices. No wonder it has such an interesting taste. On the other hand, vodka is a mixed alcoholic drink made out of distilled beers, that are actually made from grains. Last, but not least, the fortified wines are in fact mixed alcoholic drinks made of fermented wine and extracted spirits.

This is just a basic classification of spirits. There are numerous types of such mixed alcoholic drinks, most of them being different from country to country. It is a commonly known fact that each region of the world has a personal favorite alcoholic drink and that they will most surely produce it in many distinct ways and combinations.

Every person knows that the chemical and food experts have proved for years that wine contains rich deposits of vitamins, minerals and natural sugars that are often very good for the health of the consumers. Not to speak about the fact that the wine is a type of booze which is also rich in potassium and low in sodium. Because of the juices’ longer contact with the grape skins, the red wines have even more of these elements. And should you want a Vitamin B refill, you can settle the matter by choosing red wine too!
