Wine Could Reduce High Level of Cholesterol



Cholesterol control could be an enjoyable experience for those who take liquors, as wine is the newly inducted remedy for controlling high cholesterol. It sounds unbelievable but it has been proven that intake of wine could reduce high level of bad cholesterol. So, wine helps in preventing coronary artery diseases.


Although it's not medically preferred but for those who already are in a habit of taking wine, this finding is merry making. They need to regulate the amount of wine consumption though. This remedy serves the purpose only when taken in a regulated amount.


Usually doctors don't suggest wine remedy to those who are wary of consuming liquors but on few occasions doctors have been found recommending red wine to curtail a surge in LDL, the bad cholesterol. Folks who already take alcohol are advised to keep moderate level of wine consumption to keep LDL under control. If taken limitlessly, wine could act contrary to what it is suggested for.


Wine could control total cholesterol by increasing a little amount of HDL or good cholesterol that lowers down bad cholesterol level in blood. HDL does so by bringing LDL back to liver from blood, reducing thereby the total cholesterol level. Wine could affect cholesterol in other ways too. Like, wine usually comes with anti oxidant elements and certain other chemicals such as resveratrol and flavonoids which directly attack bad cholesterol and eliminate it from arteries. These elements including Vitamin E are found in wine and serve as anti coagulants, preventing the plaque formation in arteries. It shows that wine by regulating LDL could save you from danger of coronary artery complications.


While consuming wine you are not meant to take more than two pegs a day. What specifically comes to your rescue in case of high cholesterol with probably negligible side effects is one or two drink of red wine. Along with resveratrol red wine comes with chemical called saponins that happen to be a prolific LDL eliminator. Catechin is another beneficial content of red wine that serves the same purpose. With constant but regulated intake of red wine you lessen your chances of developing cardiovascular problems by thirty percent. You must not wonder about efficacy of red wine in cholesterol control as it is extracted from red grapes that already happen to be a natural cholesterol reducer.


A moderate amount of wine often tend to reduce over all fat content of body that also result in reduction of total cholesterol.


To sum up, wine consumption if incorporated in your life style would probably keep you away from high cholesterol and related complications. However it's not a preferred practice and American Heart Association is quite wary of this peaking connotation of wine's efficacy.

Michigan Wine For Your Reading Pleasure

Working Out with Wine and Chocolate


Is it true that working out with wine and chocolate does a body good or is it another trend? You be the judge.

Wine and chocolate go hand in hand. Savoring, sipping and ingesting the pair are virtually a workout within itself. One hand must delicately grasp the wine glass, while the other hand docilely balances the chocolate between the index and thumb.

Wine and Chocolate Lift-Savors


  • Lift, 1-2-3

  • Hold

  • Nibble

  • Sip, savor and swish around the palette

  • Allow to linger on the tongue for a count of 7-10 seconds

  • And repeat (3-sets with 4-5 repetitions)

At the same token, these actions should be made in slow deliberate movements. The concept entails allowing each morsel of chocolate (Godiva, Lindt or whatever you prefer) to slowly dissolve on the tongue so that when the fusion of wine and chocolate come head-to-head, the culmination induces sheer ecstasy for the palette.

Verisimilar to yoga where each movement is held for moments, the art of this regimen requires focus, stamina and the willpower to enable the wine to co-mingle with the chocolate.

Although this fitness program has not been endorsed by the American Medical Association, the National Health Council nor the World Health Organization, there seems to be a myriad of benefits to exercising with wine and chocolate. Let's explore the health benefits:

Incentives for Working Out with Dark Chocolate and Red Wine


  • Red wine contains antioxidant polyphenols (compounds of grape derivative of tannins and anthocyanin pigments)

  • Dark chocolate (65% cocoa has antioxidants referred to as flavanols

  • A glass of red wine is suggested as heart-friendly

  • Dark chocolate is deemed as a mood enhancer

  • Holding a wine glass in one hand can burn up to a single calorie per minute

To avert work out burn out, the fitness program should be done in moderation with your physician's approval (of course). Nevertheless, everyone should exercise his or her right to work out with chocolate and red wine. To learn more exercise recommendations on chocolate and wine, visit www.TheConsumerJournal.com.
