The essential can the glass of red wine, taken during a meal, protect our arteries from cardiovascular disease?The question is debated but studies show the benefits of this consumption if we respect certain rules.Lighting with a Toulouse CHU cardiologist.

This is an assertion that continues to divide medicine.Yet Professor Jean Ferrières, cardiologist at the Toulouse University Hospital and researcher at Inserm persists and signs: drink a glass of wine a day, preferably red, it's good for health!As he had already shown as part of the vast international monica study, he reminds us of what conditions this habit remains without risk.

"We are certain at 99.9% that wine is protective against cardiovascular disease (infarction, stroke) and that it also protects us from atherosclerosis, that is to say the deposit of fats inThe arteries.But beware, this is true only if we stick to a specific and moderate mode of consumption.By moderate we hear two maximum glasses per day for men and a drink for women, never consumed on an empty stomach, always during meals.Indeed digestion facilitates the absorption of polyphenols.It is because of the presence of these protective polyphenols that we must favor red wine with white wine.

Not valid with beer and strong alcohols

There will always be a doctor, researcher to assert this kind of stupidity.There is no scientific evidence on the benefits of red wine.

As a child, I knew an old mountain dweller who went to coffee regularly with his friends to play belote.They used to drink a white wine bunch each by playing.One day, this old mountain dweller goes to the doctor for a rare time in his life.The latter said to him: "We will have to stop white wine".The doctor knew his habits by his family.Well, he continued to play cards;But by drinking a red wine chopine.He died at 90.This story is truthful;But the example is not necessarily to follow.
