Notice of meeting: The Wine Diet

The Society does not wish to promote bad habits amongst its members but the idea that wine might, in some circumstances, be good for health will not go away!
Professor Crozier has contributed to the literature on this topic and will present the evidence. One of our members, Dr John Larkin, will offer some practical examples with limited wine tasting to accompany a light meal both before and after the talk.
Speaker: Prof Alan Crozier, Professor of Plant Biochemistry and Human Nutrition, University of Glasgow.
Date and time: Thursday, February 14th 2008, with starters at 6.30pm, talk at 7pm and main course thereafter.
Venue: The Ebenezer Duncan Centre, Victoria Infirmary.
