The Health Benefits of Mulled Red Wine

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A classic drink associated with the holiday season is mulled red wine. Combining citrus fruits and spices like cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger seeped in hot red wine, this drink is an obvious provider of cozy comfort on cold, dark nights.

However, as people sip on this traditional winter beverage, they might not know the healthy benefits it provides. Below is a list of some of the ways in which you improve your health while you enjoy mulled red wine in moderation.

Improved Cardiovascular Health

The National Institutes of Health have published a number of articles indicating that that consumption of red wine can lower the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. This is because red wine, when ingested, acts against cardiovascular issues through several mechanisms, “including increasing the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol plasma levels, decreasing platelet aggregation, by antioxidant effects, and by restoration of endothelial function.”

The red wine in mulled wine isn’t the only ingredient that boosts the health of your cardiovascular system – nutmeg also promotes a healthy heart because it can lower blood pressure.

Halting the Effects of Aging

Red wine is one of the primary sources of resveratrol, a polyphenol that acts as an antioxidant. Studies have shown that resveratrol can slow the effects of aging by changing the ways in which age-related genes express themselves.

Increases Bone Density

Osteoporosis, or the thinning and weakening of bones due to aging, is a major concern for people as they grow older. Research into the benefits of resveratrol have found, however, that it can increase longitudinal bone growth and bone density.

Improved Brain Function

In addition to directly helping the heart, the resveratrol found in red wine boosts brain function and memory through improved blood flow. Additionally, the nutmeg used in mulled wine cuts down on fatigue and stress, increases concentration, and stimulates the brain.

Reducing Inflammation

Chronic inflammation is linked to the development of a variety of serious medical conditions. Fortunately, the cinnamon added to mulled red wine produces a powerful anti-inflammatory effect throughout the body, helping to reduce swelling in soft tissue and restore proper tissue function.
