Lowers Risk Of Heart Disease and Stroke

The contained tannin in red wine, which is also the main “culprit” for its strong red colour, contains procyanidins, a compound best-known for protecting the human heart. Additionally, the contained resveratrol also helps in removing harmful chemicals that are responsible for causing blood clots, which is the main cause of coronary heart disease. It is also proven that one glass of Australian red wine per day can cut blood clot strokes by 50%.

Promotes Long Life

Many medical studies show that red wine drinkers have a 34% lower mortality rate than beer drinkers. These studies show that polyphenol and resveratrol, which are known to protect our heart from the development of chronic diseases may be the responsible compounds for its longevity benefits.

Cancer Treatment

Researches also show that regular consumption of Australian red wine can reduce the risk of the today’s modern disease – cancer. The clinical pharmacologist, Stockley with 20 years experience at the Australian Wine Research Institute, said that light to moderate red wine consumption can actually decrease the risk of various types of cancer. Stokley says that studies have also shown that drinking red wine in moderation can decrease the risk of lung cancer, bowel cancer, digestive tract, as well as Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma by 20-40%. “Phenolic compounds (found mainly in red wine) can prevent the progression and growth of cancer cells”, states Stockley.
