Summary: Red wine is the one of the most common alcoholic drinks in many countries over the world. It contains the major polyphenol called Resveratrol (3,5,4’-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) found mostly in skin of grapes that possess many health benefits. In nervous system, Resveratrol acts against Alzheimer’s disease as antioxidant. In circulatory system, Resveratrol acts as anti-atherogenic effect to improve lipid profiles. Immune system, Resveratrol acts as anti-inflammatory cytokines to suppress the inflammations. Moreover, Resveratrol acts as anti-cancer which can reduce the size of tumor growth and facilitate apoptosis. Resveratrol also helps in anti-aging, cytoprotective in renal, treatment of gastritis and improve retina remodeling. But …show more content…
The evidences shown that wine production was first started in Georgia, Iran , Greece and Armenia, respectively without any wineries(David, 2003). 1900 years later, the oldest winery had discovered with wine press, fermentation vats, jars and cups with Vitis vinifera seeds (Grape seeds) and vines (Berkowitz, 1996). The wine production still has been expanded more and more in presence. Now the European Union is the leader of producer and exporter of wine of the world. There isn’t only red wine as before but plenty of wine classification shown for example, White wine, sparkling wine, Rose’ wine, dessert wine, fortified wine, etc. Apparently, the most popular type of wine is still red wine (Ryansnyder, …show more content…
Effect of resveratrol on Atherogenic diet in rats. Atherosclerosis is the disease in which disease in which plaque builds up inside your arteries that are responsible in carrying oxygen-rich blood to heart and body. The plaques are formed by fat and cholesterol. To prevent atherosclerosis, the fat and cholesterol must be in low amount (Gibbon, 2013). The study of Meng, C.,Liu, J.L.& Du, A.L.(2014) on “Cardioprotective effect of resveratrol on atherogenic diet-fed rats” aims to investigate how resveratrol influence on normal and atherogenic diet in rats by checking risk ratio and lipid profile which are cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, HDL and VLDL. The 24 Male Wister rats were divided into 3 groups; 1st group (control=6) is administered water and standard diet, 2nd group (=6) is administered resveratrol mixed water and standard diet and 3rd group (=12) is administered resveratrol mixed water and atherogenic diet for 30 days. In the comparison, 1st and 2nd group were compared on how resveratrol influence on standard diet condition. After 30 days, 3rd group was divided into 2 subgroups with equal amount of rats (=6/each group); the 3rd-a group assigned to get water and atherogenic diet and 3rd-b group assigned to get resveratrol mixed water and atherogenic diet. In comparison, 3rd-a and 3rd-b group were compared on how resveratrol affects in atherogenic diet-fed
Described within the vignette is a nineteen year old teenager named Brandy. Similar to girls her age, Brandy has difficulties dealing with her body image and self-esteem. For instance, she experiences hopelessness, isolation, sadness, and anxiety that all contribute to Brandy’s acknowledgement of her physical appearance. She completely overestimates her body size to the point of taking dieting pills then defaulting to purging. During the typical day, the meals are scarce but healthy compared to a bad day full of unhealthy snacking. Lastly, her family predicament is not a supportive one at that. Her mother was obese so she constantly dieted while Brandy’s father illustrated signs of sexual interest although he never physically touched her.
The Roman writer and naturalist Pliny the Elder, in his treatise Naturalis Historia states “there is nothing more useful than wine for strengthening the body, while, at the same time, there is nothing more pernicious as a luxury, if we are not on our guard against excess.” Years before he wrote those words, wine had in fact come from humble origins outside Italy itself. Furthermore, the process of fermenting grapes goes back thousands of years, and its beginning can be traced to where the wild grown grape-vine, vitis vinifera, flourished and was actively utilized for this reason.
Economic returns in the global market place have been influenced by trends in wine consumption. Figure 2 shows a trend of decreasing wine consumption from 2007 - 2011 in most old world countries while new world countries were increasing their consumption. This is due to the diversification of alcoholic beverages in the old world countries and the growing wine popularity in the new world
In the span of only a few pages, L.B. Church has given us an overview of the winemaking process. He has done so with sufficient detail for those in the chemistry community to follow along, yet still in a cursory enough manner as to not bog them down with the unnecessary. Written as if it were the procedure of an experiment, he has given enough information for the experiment to be repeated, tested, validated and improved upon. And that is almost assuredly his goal from the very beginning, as it must be for any published author in the chemistry community.
LDL or bad cholesterol comes from food that is a high source of cholesterol and/or saturated fats. Plaque forms when bad or LDL cholesterol builds up in your bloodstream and attaches to the arterial wall, as more LDL builds up the plaque becomes larger, this can become a major problem for your cardiovascular system. Because plaque is a substance that has rough edges, it reduces the elastic nature of the artery which means your heart will have to work double-time to pump the necessary blood to all your limbs, that will mean your limbs won’t get the amount of oxygen that they require to function properly. Plaque can also narrow the area blood has to pass through, this means your heart has to work overtime and overall capacity of your cardiovascular system is lowered. When the LDL cholesterol embeds itself in the wall of the artery it than damages the artery then blood pressure expands it which causes an aneurysm. When an aneurysm is too weak there is a high possibility of it bursting, when that happens it leaves the cells in and around that area without oxygen. If that artery is connected to a major vital organ the person will most likely die. When the blood flow is slowed it shows a greater risk for blood clots and although blood clots are natural and important to healing broken blood vessels, if blood clots gather inside the blood vessel this proves to be a serious health risk. The clots have the possibility to get stuck and completely cut off the blood flow to cells, leaving them without oxygen and causing them to die. If a clot gets inside a blood vessel connected to a major organ this could cause the person to die. The heart is fed by the coronary artery, if plaque or a blood clot blocks off blood flow to the heart, the heart ...
Although atherosclerosis affects millions of people around the world, there are many ways to prevent and treat it once it has developed. Simple life style changes can greatly reduce the inflammation and damage to the endothelial wall of the artery. It is very important that people who have high blood pressure or diabetes get regular checkups; if atherosclerosis goes untreated, the adverse effects, such as stroke or myocardial infarction can be deadly.
Coronary heart disease is defined by the hardening of the epicardial coronary arteries. The buildup of plaque in the arteries slowly narrows the coronary artery lumen. In order to better understand the physiology of the disease, it is important to first know the basic anatomy of the human heart. The aorta, located in the superior region of the heart, branches off into two main coronary blood vessels, otherwise known as arteries. The arteries are located on the left and right side of the heart and span its surface. They subsequently branch off into smaller arteries which supply oxygen-rich blood to the entire heart (Texas Heart Institute, 2013). Therefore, the narrowing of these arteries due to plaque buildup significantly impairs blood flow throughout the heart.
Hyperlipidemia or increased cholesterol builds up causing narrowing in the arteries, which reduces oxygen rich blood flow to the heart and tissues, also increasing the risk for myocardial infarction. Obesity increases the risk of developing diabetes, high blood pressure, and hyperlipidemia, increasing the risk of atherosclerosis, and therefore increasing
Resveratrol has been the focus of numerous studies because of its attributed medicinal properties which include protecting heart and blood flow, as an anti-inflammatory and as an insulin sensitizer. It has also received public attention as studies show that it interferes with carcinogenesis and is effective at destroying tumours ...
of fatty substances on the inside wall of the arteries). It is not caused by
Red liquid sweet but bitter, the taste leaves the drinker wanting more. It's been a long hard week, and waiting at home for you is a nice bottle of red wine from one of the best local wineries. Wine has been around since about 6600 BC; and slowly but surely it grew to become one of the most money making industry in Sonoma County, wine itself. When looking and hearing at economic growth or impact, the main topics that are talked about are climate change, college, or even sports. Little do we know that wine has had impacted the growth in Sonoma County. Throughout this paper we will be looking at the history of wine, and the impact of wine in Sonoma county.
Wine was a royal drink that kings use to drink, it was extracted from Vineyards. One of the oldest-known winery was discovered in the "Areni-1" cave in “Vayots Dzor”, Armenia. Since then wine was flourished all across the world. From a local consumption Wine became an International trading commodity. The older the wine the costlier it sells. Most of the wines are stored in wooden barrels, as it enhances the taste and colour of the wine.
Generally speaking, other alcoholic beverages can be viewed as being a substitute for wine. However, specific substitution of wine in the New World is low because most individuals prefer to purchase wine from a retail facility instead of producing their own. Where as in the Old World the option of producing wine...
But nowadays, over-nutrition is prevailing. Diseases like coronary heart disease, obesity, cancer and diabetes have become chronic. Research in 1990’s has recognized that certain nutrients have potent biological effects in addition to their nutritional value. This recognition created interest in studying the effect of micronutrients and other biologically active food ingredients on diseases. Functional foods include potent agents that induce health benefits in addition to their nutritional value. Some examples of such food ingredients are lycopene in tomatoes which reduce the risk for cancer, phytosterols in benecol margarine which reduce cholesterol levels thus reducing risk of coronary heart disease.
In the northeast of France, a region known mainly for it’s famous sparkling wine, named after itself Champagne. Wines from this region been recognized since before medieval times. Around the 5th century, the Romans planted and cultivated the vineyard in this region of France. Later, the churches and monks cultivated these vineyard in order to produce wine for the sacrament of Eucharist. Champagne wine was used in coronation ceremonies for French Kings, when they were traditionally anointed.
