Study may show that wine helps with Multiple Sclerosis

I thought I was the only one who drank to numb my feelings?

A study was done on MS patients and wine consumption...

"The researchers found that relapse MS sufferers who drank wine seemed to enjoy an observable "protective effect." Symptoms decreased. In the study, more than 80 percent of the participants drank up to seven glasses of wine per week. The same also held true for people who drink coffee or eat fish regularly."


This sounds great for reservatol which is an anti-inflammatory. Amazing how this compound seems to be more and more beneficial.

I am going to live forever

Here I am again, patting myself on the back.

11 obese men tested in the Netherlands for the first study of the compound naturally found in grapes, Reservatol, on humans.

"A team of biologists, nutritionists and radiologists analyzed health data from the two periods and found that when the men were on resveratrol they experienced more optimal metabolism. While they did not lose weight, they avoided many of the side effects of a poor diet. Their livers stored less fat; sugar and insulin levels in their blood decreased; mitochondria, the powerhouses of individual cells, showed better function and overall energy expenditure decreased "

I get it when they say drinking wine won't come nearly as close to the doses given to their subjects. I am going to be a little optimistic and believe the levels of reservatol in my system are WAY higher than most due to how much wine I consume. I win drinking contests. Grown men give me high-fives. I am a champion wine-drinker...and now I am going to live forever. In your face, responsible people, IN YO' FACE!
