Is a glass of red wine a day good?

I believe everyone is familiar with red wine. In fact, drinking red wine correctly can achieve very good health effects. A glass of red wine a day can effectively protect prostatitis, and it can also play a good role in preventing some cardiovascular diseases. It also helps to treat diabetes.

1. Protect the prostate: Red wine is rich in resveratrol, a polyphenol compound that can effectively inhibit the development of cancer cells. Through experimental research, drinking half a cup or a cup a day can reduce the risk of prostate cancer.

2. Middle-aged men can live longer by drinking a little red wine every day: wine can promote the absorption of vitamins and prevent blood clots. A 40-year study in the Netherlands shows that middle-aged men can prolong their lifespan by drinking a small glass of wine every day. Those who drink half a glass of wine regularly every day can live an average of nearly four years longer than those who do not drink.

3. Prevent cardiovascular diseases: Red wine mainly works through the antioxidant ingredients it contains, such as resveratrol, flavonoids and quercetin, which can slow down the accumulation of cholesterol in the body, thereby protecting the heart and preventing cardiovascular diseases. France once conducted experiments and found that only the special fermentation method of red wine can bring such an effect. Neither white wine nor grape juice has such effect.

4. Auxiliary treatment of diabetes: Drinking appropriate amount of wine every day can reduce the risk of mild diabetes in men. Moreover, people who drink red wine moderately can enhance calcium absorption and prevent osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis.
