All agricultural ingredients used in the process must also be certified organic. And sulphites, which are added to wines to preserve the flavour and stop the fermentation process, can only be added in limited amounts. The allowed sulphite amounts vary depending on where you are in the world. For example in the US they allow 0 mg\/l of sulphites but in Europe red wines can contain 100 mg\/l and white wines 150 mg\/l.<\/p>\n<div class=\"shortcode-ys-post-pinup\"><article class=\"loop-simple post-165968 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-health-and-training tag-energy-bars tag-energy-gel tag-race-day-nutrition\" data-postid=\"165968\" role=\"article\" data-post-id=\"165968\" data-word-count=\"430\" data-headline-length=\"41\" data-category=\"Health &amp; Training\" data-author=\"Jiri Kaloc\" data-published=\"2018-07-17T06:03:09+00:00\" data-published-day=\"Tuesday\">\n    <div class=\"entry-thumbnail article-thumbnail\" content=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1-150x150.webp\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/2018\/07\/17\/race-day-nutrition-how-to-shop-for-it\/\" class=\"image-holder\" target=\"_self\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1.webp 900w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/07\/profimedia-0341146870-1-272x182.webp 272w\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1200px) 300px, (min-width: 768px) 25vw, 100vw\" alt=\"race-day-nutrition-how-to-shop-for-it\"\/><\/a><\/div>    <div class=\"entry-meta\">\n        <a class=\"label label-secondary post-category\" href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/category\/health-and-training\/\" title=\"Health &amp; Training\">Health &amp; Training<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"entry-details\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/2018\/07\/17\/race-day-nutrition-how-to-shop-for-it\/\" class='entry-title-wrapper'>\n            <h3 class=\"entry-title\"><span>Race Day Nutrition \u2013 How to Shop for It<\/span><\/h3>\n        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/article>\n<\/div>\n<p>The rumours are that these wines, thanks to their purity and natural production processes, taste better, are more nutritious, and most importantly, don\u2019t cause hangovers. Now let\u2019s look at what science has to say about that.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>It does taste better<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Researchers from the University of California looked at expert reviews for more than 74,000 wines in their 2016 study and concluded that organic wines taste better. They scored an average of 4.1 points higher than their non-organic counterparts, on a scale of 1 to 100.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/pexels-photo-1123260.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-169985\" src=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/pexels-photo-1123260.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Fewer pesticides are probably better for health<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There\u2019s no convincing research showing that organic wines provide more nutrition than non-organic ones. Some research does suggest though that heavy pesticide use could be linked to some cancers, Alzheimer\u2019s disease, developmental delays, and ADHD. And grapes are 5th on the EWG\u2019s 2018 Dirty Dozen list, meaning 96 % of conventional grapes test positive for pesticide residues.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>You can still get a hangover<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>People often try to blame sulphites for their hangovers. Unfortunately, evidence doesn\u2019t support this claim. While about 1 % of the population that is allergic to sulphites will enjoy organic wine more for sure, it\u2019s usually the histamines and tannins that cause problems and exacerbate hangovers. As for the hangover itself, it\u2019s about the alcohol content. There\u2019s no way around it, as long as you drink too much, you will get a hangover.<\/p>\n<div class=\"shortcode-ys-post-pinup\"><article class=\"loop-simple post-166726 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-health-and-training tag-eat-to-ride tag-vegetarian-diet\" data-postid=\"166726\" role=\"article\" data-post-id=\"166726\" data-word-count=\"401\" data-headline-length=\"38\" data-category=\"Health &amp; Training\" data-author=\"Jiri Kaloc\" data-published=\"2018-08-07T05:47:37+00:00\" data-published-day=\"Tuesday\">\n    <div class=\"entry-thumbnail article-thumbnail\" content=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr-150x150.webp\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/2018\/08\/07\/vegetarian-diet-how-to-do-it-right\/\" class=\"image-holder\" target=\"_self\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr.webp 900w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2018\/08\/eggscvr-272x182.webp 272w\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1200px) 300px, (min-width: 768px) 25vw, 100vw\" alt=\"vegetarian-diet-how-to-do-it-right\"\/><\/a><\/div>    <div class=\"entry-meta\">\n        <a class=\"label label-secondary post-category\" href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/category\/health-and-training\/\" title=\"Health &amp; Training\">Health &amp; Training<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"entry-details\">\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.welovecycling.com\/wide\/2018\/08\/07\/vegetarian-diet-how-to-do-it-right\/\" class='entry-title-wrapper'>\n            <h3 class=\"entry-title\"><span>Vegetarian Diet \u2013 How to Do It Right<\/span><\/h3>\n        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/article>\n<\/div>\n<p>To sum it up, if you are going to buy organic wine, do it for the taste and for the positive effects on the environment.
