Sardinia's Beverage Rx For A Long Life!

                                 Drink Wine Like The Sardinians!
Sardinia-the picturesque island off the coast of Italy has 20 times the number
of people who reached 100-as the United States.
Their secrets:
Well, they have many-time spent with family, working into their 80's and 90's,
meals of lean proteins, fruit, vegetables, nuts, naps and a special wine.

The special wine:
Black Wine!
That's right- you've been told about drinking dark red wine to bolster your health,
but the Sardinians- they like their wine black.
It's actually an extremely dark red wine that they call  vino nero or "black wine"
and it contains more resveratrol than any other wine.
And thanks to the extra resveratrol- the Sardinians are able to prevent certain
cancers, fight Alzheimer's, maintain ideal weight and extend their longevity.

So, are you willing to drink a glass or two of wine daily to extend your
life like the Sardinians?
If you're willing to give it a try, look for a wine called Cannonau di Sardegna.
And remember: No more than one or two glasses, any more and you'll endanger
your health.

Good Luck!

Himalayan Rx To Postpone Aging!

                     Turn Back The Clock-Himalayan Style!
There's a spot high atop the Himalayan mountains in northern India,
where people live well into their 90's without cancer, heart disease
and other health issues.

How do they do it?
Tea, more specifically Assam tea and it's the reason why they age less slowly.
Assam is a scenic region in the Himalayans as well as a tea.
Like black tea it can also help you prevent a stroke, help you
sleep better, reduce cortsiol and look a few yrs. younger than your actual
age, But, unlike black tea it's much more powerful, how so?

The tea is grown at sea level in a warm climate, making the plant compounds
in the leaves better preserved, so they pack more antioxidants.
Antioxidants that work hard to keep you looking younger than your years.

So, where do find this incredible tea?
Look for it at health food stores or go online to Amazon.com and type
Assam tea in the search bar.

And also important: have the tea with a little lemon and/or honey,
or milk, but skip the danish and other sweets.
Avoiding sugary pastries is also recommended for postponing aging.

Good Luck!

English Pub's Rx To Fight Inflammation!

                             Have A Pint For Better Health!
English, Scottish and Irish pubs sometimes get a bad rap.
The bad rap: People drink to excess, they waste money,
don't spend time with their families and of course, the fights.
But wait- there's something positive that can happen after
visiting a pub.

The something positive:
Younger arteries and a reduction in inflammation.
That's right, a pint of ale or lager can actually do your
health some good.

How does beer help your arteries and fight inflammation?
a) Younger Arteries-
Lagers and Ales contain a host of compounds that
expel dangerous LDLs (bad cholesterol) from your
arteries.
b) Inflammation-
A beer a day lowers levels of homocysteines, inflammatory
amino acids that damage artery walls and impede circulation
by thickening the blood.
So, if you're from England, Scotland or Ireland, and you've
been getting grief for visiting the pub on a daily basis-
remember this post and say-"I'm drinking for better health."

Also important:
Make it one beer, one ale or one lager daily, any more and you
undo all the good benefits and no smoking.
Have your one drink and then socialize.
Socializing also has positive benefits on your health.

Good Luck!
