About While Pregnant
Pregnancy is a joyous time in a woman's life, but it's also something that shouldn't be taken lightly. While pregnant, women should eat right and exercise in moderation. Remember, a pregnant woman’s body is changing to accommodate the baby, so you shouldn't be stressing your body too much with intense physical activity or by drinking heavily. A common misconception about pregnancy is that you'll still have your period; luckily that's not the case. You will not have your period while pregnant.
About Wine
Wine is one of the oldest and most celebrated alcoholic beverages on earth. Scholars believe the first wines were made in the Middle East sometime around 8,000 BCE, and introduced to Europe around 4,500 BCE. Wine usually made from the fermented juice of grapes. Different styles of wine are created from different varieties of grapes and yeasts. Not every wine is made from grapes, it can also be made from other fruits like apples and berries. Wines made from starches like malted barley and rice (barley wine and sake respectively) are more named for the high alcohol content rather than the process.
About alcohol
The most commonly used alcohol is ethanol and has been produced and consumed by humans for a millennia, in the form of fermented and distilled alcoholic beverages. As with anything, alcohol can be a great or terrible thing. Ethyl alcohol, or ethanol, is an intoxicating ingredient found in beer, wine, and liquor. Alcohol is produced by the fermentation of yeast, sugars, and starches.
