Resveratrol, a Wonder Drug in Red Wine
First off this should be stated that this article does not make it okay to drink large amounts of red wine. Ok with that being said Resveratrol which is found in red grapes is indeed linked with making a human body need less calories. Yes this can help you lose weight; by making the body think it can intake less in calories.
Resveratrol that is produced in a Japanese plant called the knotweed. And found in other items, like red grapes, pomegranate, and peanuts of the raw, boiled, or butter kind. It is a plants antibiotic, which means it helps to fight off both bacteria and fungus infections.
With fooling the body into thinking that it needs fewer calories, up to 30% you will naturally lose weight. But this is found in studies where small doses were taken of Resveratrol. Maybe amounting to a glass per day.
Thinking of it that way you can see how red wine will not only help you lose weight, but also help you become healthier. This possible wonder drug, is being studied more to see if it will affect other organs, like the heart, and brain.
Scientist took two groups of animals to do this test. It was to find out what the affects of the Resveratrol were on the function of a heart. See as we age the heart will naturally lose some functions. But with restricted diets given to one group, and the other getting a low dose of Resveratrol, the scientist came up with amazing results.
The group that had a diet that had been restricted came back with 90% of the heart still functioning as they aged. But the other group, returned results of 92% of the heart functioning properly.
It is also shown in past studies that Resveratrol can help with anti-aging properties. So remember to get the best results from Resveratrol a small dose is best.
