Return to article: How to Follow a Mediterranean Diet
on 1/25/2006 Red wine is great and many French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese (Portugal is not Mediterranean)have two glasses, usually for lunch. The French study indicated that red wine was helpful in preventing heart disease- until the statistical reviewers found that the French did not count people who died of heart attacks during the study. They said: "They are dead. Why count dead sheep?" The study, though, was significant enough to stand. Notably, the best wine to drink for your heart is domestic blueberry wine due to its massive amounts of antioxidants.
on 11/22/2005 If you do not typically drink wine, or wish to decrease your wine intake, and yet wish to obtain the benefit of reducing heart problems, you can substitute it with natural red grape juice or eating red grapes (without spitting the seeds, sorry). This is because it is not the alcohol in red wine which reduces heart problems (or beer would have done the trick), it is a chemical that comes from the crushing of red grape seeds.
