Benefits of red wine

Red wine is one of the best pleasures invented by man, not only for its glorious taste, but also for the multiple benefits it has, (always drinking aresponsibly, please). 

But, do you actually know all its benefits?

Open your can, pour yourself a glass (or enjoy directly from the can) and join us in this new article:

Wine is a great ally of health. 

There are several doctors who recommend drinking a glass daily, if possible, after dinner or accompanied by food such as fish, vegetables … Others recommend consuming it often but without a daily glass, but enjoy it when the body asks for it (be careful with this point, because it seems to always ask for it! ??????).

Although each specialist has his own vision on the matter, the properties of wine are more than recognized by the scientific community. 

Let’s get to know its benefits: 

Prevents cholesterol

Wine is rich in polyphenols such as resveratrol, a component with a high concentration of antioxidants that prevents the formation of clots and low density lipoproteins (what we know as bad cholesterol).

Prevents heart disease

Not only does your heart palpitate when you take the first sip of wine, but the properties of red wine for the heart are among the most studied by the scientific community. Its high concentration of polyphenols and vitamin E help keep the blood and blood vessels clean. Something very beneficial in the long term for heart health. 

Increases omega-3 levels

Those who consume wine regularly (in moderation) have a higher concentration of Omega 3 fatty acids in the blood.

Prevents osteoarthritis

An average of five to ten glasses of wine a week could reduce the probability of contracting rheumatoid arthritis by 50%.

Reduces the risk of cancer

Wine is a great antioxidant and is therefore a natural resource capable of blocking the growth of some of the cells responsible for cancer. Antioxidants are really useful to reduce or delay the risk of suffering from different types of cancer. Especially colon, breast or lung cancer.

Slows down aging

Who are we going to fool, aging is inevitable, but drinking wine helps to slow down aging. No creams or operations, long live the wine! If you lead a healthy lifestyle and regularly consume components related to longevity. For example, resveratrol, a compound found in the skin of red grapes, delays aging. 

Protects the skin

Flavonoids are components that strengthen cells and reduce the negative consequences of exposure to ultraviolet rays. 

Helps to lose weight

Diets? On my whatsapp it says I’m on line….

This point sounds like a myth, but several studies claim that there are components of wine that activate a gene that hinders the formation of adipose cells (fat) and also allows us to stimulate the existing ones to purify them and gradually eliminate them.

Booster for our brain

It helps to reduce the cognitive deterioration of the age, and with it the dementias and cerebral degenerative diseases. 

Makes you happier

Not only for the pleasure of drinking it (which is also). Wine is related to the increase of endorphins.

One of several substances that the body produces that can relieve pain and give a sense of well-being, avoid depression and ultimately, have a happier life. 

For this and many more reasons wine should be considered world heritage!

So now you know, if you want to enjoy the properties of wine, enjoy Zeena and your #aSipOfFreedom, wherever and whenever you want.
