Red wine also has benefits, but people believe that it has its advantages if you drink in moderate amount.

If you have bad cholesterol, drink wine before retiring to bed because the procyanidins present in red wine helps in boosting your heart health and reducing cholesterol levels. However, you should always consult your physician before taking wine, especially ask about the amount of wine you should have at night.

Resveratrol also helps in cutting back on bad cholesterol or LDL while increasing the good cholesterol or HDL level. It also shows that red wine benefits people with blood pressure. Ask your doctor before drinking a glass of red wine if you have blood pressure problems. If you have issues keeping your cholesterol level low, drink medicinal red wine every day.
