  1. Amounts ingested daily for 6 weeks were 200 mL red wine (RW) or 175 mL dealcoholized red wine (DRW). Control subjects did not receive any study drink.
  2. TPP: total phenolic content in plasma; CE: catechin equivalents; TEAC: trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity; TM0: Tail Moment in untreated cells (endogenous DNA strand breaks);
  3. TM300: Tail Moment in cells treated with 300 μM H2O2 for 20 min (exogenous DNA strand breaks)
  4. Values are means ± SD
  5. *Values different from baseline, P < 0.05 by Wilcoxon signed rank test
