Researchers have found that resveratrol in red wine is almost an Elixir of Youth and can help to extend your life. What percentage of the worlds centenarians live in the United States? You may be surprised to find that it’s 84%. These people are so lucky to live a whole century and see so many changes in life, science, medicine, history, art, and technical progress that happened during this time.
Dr. David Sinclair, a scientist from the Harvard University, and co-founder of Sirtris Pharmaceuticals found the secret how to stay young and live longer with help of red wine. To be precise, with help of resveratrol, a phytoalexin that is found in dark grapes and red wine. To be honest with you, I would rather drink a glass of good French or Italian red wine to get my dose of the Elixir of Youth–resveratrol-than eat it in pharmaceutical capsules.
So, the moral of the story is, relax, get good rest and good sleep after working week. Pour yourself a glass of rich, burgundy color Cabernet Sauvignon with tones of black currants on palate, sip it slowly, and enjoy.
