Health benefits of a glass of wine


Health benefits of a glass of wine
 New researches continue to suggest that drinking wine in moderation, about a glass per day, offers several health benefits in addition to being an enjoyable treat. It helps relax and calm our nerves after a long day at work.
 Here are a few health benefits we can get from a glass of red wine;-
1. Reduces risk of early aging
A study at Harvard University shows the natural proteins found on red wine layers and leaves have profound effect in cell regeneration reducing early aging.
2. Prevents heart disease
Many researchers support this theory with a lot of evidence. They believe that red wine’s high concentration of polyphenol antioxidants can help reduce your risk of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and metabolic diseases, thereby decreasing the risk of heart disease.
3. Helps protect our eyes
Different eye disorders and retinopathies are among the different diseases that red wine can help prevent. Studies show that red wine can decrease the risk of these diseases by 32%.
4. Enhanced memory
Studies suggest that a compound called resveratrol in wine has anti-inflammatory properties and may benefit health including better retention and memorization skills.
5. Protects against cancers
Wine contains compounds that have anti-inflammatory properties. Chronic inflammation is harmful and may increase the risk of conditions such as heart disease, autoimmune disorders, and certain cancers. Therefore, it is best to prevent this type of inflammation as much as possible.
Therefore, drinking a moderate amount of red wine can have a variety of health benefits but keep in mind excessive drinking can have the opposite effect, putting you at a higher risk of all of these conditions.
