Sake and wine both offer distinct health benefits, but they differ significantly in their composition and effects on the body. 

As always results will depend on quality of alcohols, styles and productions being compared 

But first a little background to Sake - Sakamai rice has multiple strains of rice that are used to make sake and these are generally not eaten  - predominant rice is japonica small grain rice which is polished to be as clean as possible (sometimes in premium quality 40% of the outer layers of protein are polished away) leaving the inner more floral starches(as in Hakutsuru Junmai Ginjo) - available at solovino.biz.

Cold fermentation for 30 days (as in wine making) creates more floral styles such as Junmai and these should served cold.

Some of the more basic sakes dont have this floral style and the bitterness of proteins is hidden by being served hot

LOWER ACIDITY - Sake is approximately one-third lower in acidity than wine, which can help prevent issues like acid reflux and sour stomach after consumption. This makes it gentler on the digestive system compared to many wines and spirits. For those whom struggle to drink champagnes, Reislings,New zealand sauv blancs, Cool climate chardonnays - this could be a substitute !

MUSCLE REPAIR,LOWER  / CHOLESTEROL reducing -  Sake contains a high concentration of amino acids and peptides, which are beneficial for muscle repair, immune function, and overall health. These compounds can also aid in preventing conditions such as high blood pressure and may reduce the risk of certain cancers (still under research

IMPROVED SKIN QUALITY - Traditionally used in Japan as a skin toner, sake is known for its moisturizing properties. It can promote better blood flow and nutrient distribution in the skin, potentially leading to healthier, glowing skin

LOW SULPHITES AND HISTAMINES+LESS CHANE OF HANGOVER - Many premium sakes are low in sulfites and histamines, which are often responsible for hangover symptoms associated with other alcoholic drinks. This makes sake a potentially better option for those prone to hangovers...specifically for those prone to "red wine hangovers"

LOWER CALORIFIC INTAKE - Sake generally has less sugar than wine, which can be beneficial for those monitoring their sugar intake. The calorie content is comparable, with sake averaging around 156 calories per serving, similar to white wine and less than average glasses of wine which may be closer to 300 calories per normal serving

Sake can be pair with many different styles of foods - from typical sushi and sashimi, to dishes with umami-miso bases, creamy pasta dishes, pizza with tomato and light cheeses 

Whilst there may be some beneficial reasons for trying Sake, as the norms to be considered that alcohol consumption should be monitored within reasonable consumption and not for sale to those under 18
