Diet, Exercise and Drink Wine!


This is just too good to be true! Dutch researchers recently released their study on the benefits of wine. Yes - the BENEFITS of wine! They found that drinking a half-glass of wine a day might help you live longer - five years longer! They said wine may contribute to longevity because it seems to prevent the build-up of fatty tissue in the arteries. For people who suffer from arthritis, the Dutch scientists found that drinking wine significantly reduced inflammation and even reduced the risk of developing several arthritic conditions! But here is the best news of all: women who drink a light to moderate amount of wine tend to gain less weight than women who don't drink! Bringham and Women's Hospital in Boston conducted a study of 19,000 women over 13 years and found this to be true. This is the best diet aid I have ever heard of! They are not sure why it works, but suspect the reason is because women who drink moderate amounts of alcohol tend to eat less food, particularly carbs. So, bring on the wine and shed those pounds! Enjoying a glass of wine or two because it's healthy for you . . . it's a good thing!
