Chocolate is good for you.
Life is good!
I think the main message is that everything in moderation is good for you.
Depending on the size of the dose you just might not care if you are depressed, at least until the next dose.
Trying to tease out the causalities can be tricky. It might be that those with a cheerier world view might prefer the wine, rather than the wine promoting the cheerier world view. Also, depression medications generally come with warnings against alcohol consumption.

I guess Neil Diamond/UB40 were onto something.
What's the word? Thunderbird!
What's the price? Thirty twice.
When you're feeling low,
It makes you want to go, go, go!
When you're feeling sad,
It makes you feel so glad.
Have you heard?
What's the word? Thunderbird!
It makes you want to fly, fly, fly
In the sky, sky, sky.
You go high, high, high,
And you cry, "my, my, my!"
Have you heard?
What's the word? Thunderbird!
Just one sip of that Thunderbird
Drives your blues away.
You dig that word, you dig that bird,
And you'll be happy all the day.
Hey, hey, hey!
Ain't it a lovely day!
Feel so good,
Just the way I should.
Have you heard?
What's the word? Thunderbird!
My daily dose of wine use to be 1 1/2 liters. Moderation. Wait, what?
I double up to make sure.
Chocolate is good for you."
You forgot sex?
Cherry wine is red.
I make enough red wine every summer to equal a 21 oz serving every day. I don’t miss my serving very often. It makes me a happy camper.
It is hard for me to believe that one glass of wine per day would have much effect on depression. It is easy for me to believe that daily socializing with friends would have a big effect on depression.
Too much wine gives me a nasty headache. I guess that says something about what wine does in small doses when we don’t notice its true effects.
My mother asked her doctor about a prescription for anti-anxiety medication, and her doctor said, “You’re a strong woman; you can just have wine!”
Whenever I limit my diet to caffeine, protein, and alcohol, I lose weight and I feel better. Right now I’m enjoying what I call my chicken-and-vodka diet. I’ve lost 18 lbs since June 14, and my appetite has shrunk to almost nothing. Twenty more pounds and I’ll have Sherlock cheekbones. I’ll probably have Sherlock eccentria, too, but that’s fine.
Mrs. Pete from Shawnee Mission says yes! Definitely Yes!
