Heart Disease Eliminator

Although the American Heart Association does not support drinking wine or any alcohol for non-drinkers or those at risk of alcoholism, they do support light to moderate drinking that can promote positive heart health. Wine has been found to promote heart health, as the tannins found in red wine contain procyanidins - which are phenols that neutralize free radicals - that have shown to prevent cardiovascular disease. A study conducted by researchers at the Israel Institute of Technology tested the effects red wine has on the health of blood vessels. After twenty-one days of continuous consumption, participants showed that their blood vessel cell health greatly improved, as well as an enhancement in blood flow, which overall increases the health of the heart, and lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Wine has also proven to have a healthy dosage of omega-3 fatty acids, which are believed to further protect the heart against disease. One research study showed that in 1,604 adult participants, regular and moderate wine consumption was related to higher blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which further helped to reduce the risk of heart disease.
