Red wine is among the alcoholic drinks said to reduce the risk of Covid infection, a new study has found - but experts have warned against drinking to excess.
A study published in Frontiers in Nutrition looked at the medical records of 473,957 people through the UK Biobank.
The report studied the drinking habits and Covid history during the course of the pandemic.
It discovered that people that consumed five or more glasses of red wine per week were up to 17 per cent less likely to be at risk from the virus, when compared to non-drinkers.
Scientists said that the reduced risk could be the result of the drink’s high polyphenol content, which can inhibit the likes of the flu and other respiratory conditions.
Consumption of white wine and champagne above the recommended alcohol guidelines decreased the Covid risk.
The study found that people who drink one to four glasses a week of both drinks could lower the risk from Covid by up to eight per cent.
But it was bad news for pint lovers, as those who drank any amount of beer and cider were at increased risk of 28 per cent from Covid when compared to non-drinkers.
