Red Wine Burns Fat And Lowers Blood Pressure, Plus 5 Other Health Benefits.
5 Worthy Benefits Of Red Wine:
1. Memory Protection Against Alzheimer’s Disease;
The powerful antioxidant resveratrol
protects against cell damage and prevents age-related mental decline.
2. Mimics Gym Time:
Resveratrol is also responsible for heart-healthy benefits, including
improved physical performance and muscle strength. It also mimics cardiovascular enhancements similar to exercise. But the benefits are limited, so don’t always trade in your cardio for cabernet.
3. Cancer Treatment:
Researchers aren’t exactly sure how, but another active antioxidant in red
wine known as quercetin works against cancer cells, according to the American Cancer Society.
It helps to induce natural cell death in certain types of cancers, most often colon cancer.
4. Promotes Long Life:
Red wine drinkers have a 34 percent lower mortality rate than beer or
vodka drinkers, according to a 29-year-long study. Resveratrol is the polyphenol that could be responsible for its longevity benefits. But researchers think any diet rich in polyphenols, which are known to protect against the development of chronic diseases — they're found
amply in red wine — could be why.
5. Lowers Risk Of Heart Disease and Stroke:
Red wine tannins, which are what make red wine the color red, contain procyanidins — known for protecting against heart disease. Resveratrol also helps to remove chemicals responsible for causing blood clots, which is the primary cause of coronary disease. A daily dose of red wine cuts blood clot-related stroke rates by 50 percent.
