In this regard, while expressing her opinion regarding the risk on offer to those drinking wine in low quantity, Dr. Wendy Chen, one of the lead researchers, has recently admitted that the spike in the peril is "quite small". She further notified the media that the increase in risk is perhaps attributable to the harmful effects produced by it on the circulating oestrogen levels.
