Drinking wine helps fight blood infections

A recent study has discovered new benefits of some ingredients in red wine, which are healthful if consumed in a level.

Scottish and Singaporean scientists have been interested in the anti-inflammatory properties of a rich ingredient in wine - resveratrol. And they demonstrated in laboratory mice that the anti-inflammatory properties of resveratrol are real.

Resveratrol is a hydrocarbure (polyphenol of the stillbenes layer), produced by plants to protect them against pathogens, insects or bacteria. Some plants such as grapes, mulberry or peanuts . produce resveratrol in large quantities. Even pine and eucalyptus trees contain plenty of resveratrol.

Now, it's the anti-inflammatory properties of resveratrol. The researchers experimented on two groups of mice. In the first group, the mice received resveratrol supplementation, while the second group received no supplement. Later, the researchers injected both mice into powerful inflammatory agents, capable of causing blood infections, which could lead to death.

As a result, mice that received resveratrol continued to be healthy, while mice without resveratrol developed severe inflammatory symptoms. And researchers have demonstrated that resveratrol has the effect of preventing the formation of two enzymes, which have a significant role in the inflammation process.

These research results may allow us to think of more effective treatments against infections.

Researcher Alirio Alendez of the University of Glasgow, Scotland, explains: "The goal of the study is actually to recognize one direction of therapy to help treat severe inflammatory conditions. And now it is time to specify. all that on you "./ .
