Proven: red wine slows aging

Доказано: красное вино замедляет старениеAll you need to know the measure.

Scientists from Boston University (USA), came to the conclusion that the consumption of red wine protects against cellular aging, which may slow down the inclusion of the degenerative processes of old age, and the appearance stays youthful. Effect of red wine on the living cells was checked during the experiments on laboratory animals.

In the experiment group rats were given polyphenols from red wine. In summing up the observations of the biologists stated: “Consumption of red wine rich in polyphenols and natural antioxidants, prevents aging-related abnormalities in vascular function.”

In particular, clinicians found that substances contained in red wine help to prevent premature endothelial dysfunction. This violation leads to atherosclerotic lesions of the arteries and hypertension processes that reduce the life cycle of the organism and impair the quality of life itself.

“Reducing the risk of endothelial dysfunction with the consumption of red wine is associated with a reduction in the intensity of oxidative stress and activation of proteins that help improve the physical capabilities of the body,” explained the researchers the effect of this popular drink.

The authors believe that the information contained in wine polyphenols interact with a peculiar enzymes, slowing down the process of endothelial dysfunction, which occurs naturally in the body in ageing. The walls of the arteries among wine lovers are more durable due to the attenuation of oxidative stress, experts say.
