Wine Will Make You Immortal

For starters, no wine will not make you immortal, but it's a nice afterthought, wouldn’t you agree? Instead, wine has been proven to increase longevity in many studies and is a core aspect of the Mediterranean Diet, which is associated with a healthy lifestyle and lifespan. The magical aspect of wine associated with longevity is, of course, resveratrol! Scientists at Harvard Medical School learned that resveratrol activates a protein that behaves as an anti-aging agent within the body, with this interaction improving overall health and promoting longevity. Not only does it improve longevity, but wine drinkers have also been shown to have a thirty-four percent lower mortality rate compared to spirits and beer drinkers, based on a Finnish study of 2,468 men over a twenty-nine year period.
