• The researchers have shown that the elderly glass of wine is more useful exercise

Surely for you it sounds like wildness, but several studies have confirmed this!

A study titled "90+ Study", began in 2003 with the purpose of analyzing the elderly. Participants in this study were originally part of another study entitled "A short survey of the world of leisure" (LWCS), which began in 1981.

Using information from these participants, a team of researchers working on the 90+ Study, was to find out: "What allows people to live to 90 years of age or older?"

The objectives of the study were as follows:

Determine the factors associated with longevity.

Determination of modifiable risk factors, mortality and dementia.

To study the performance of cognitive and functional decline in older people.

To study the epidemiology of dementia in the elderly.

To study the clinical pathological correlation in the elderly.

Participants in the study visit twice a year for the neurophysiological and neurological tests.

By the glass or bottle?

Wine can help, but it does not mean that you have to drink a whole bottle for dinner. Moderation - this is the key! According to the Mayo Clinic, for healthy adults over 65 years of sobriety - is one cup. For those who are younger than 65 years, is two glasses. Standard glass - 12 fluid ounces of beer, 5 fluid ounces of wine, or 1, 5 fluid ounces of distilled spirits.

It has been shown that moderate consumption of alcohol has the following advantages:

Less chance of ischemic stroke.

A possible reduction in risk of developing diabetes.

Reduced risk of developing or dying from heart disease.

The study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, showed how physical activity can counteract the negative effects of alcohol consumption. The study's author, Dr. Emmanuel Stamatakis studied data collected from surveys of health in England and Scotland, and then divided the 36,370 participants into three groups.

The groups were divided according to criteria that have not been very active, with a moderate amount of exercise, and those who participated in sports on a regular basis. Next, the research team looked much alcohol is consumed by the people in each group, respectively.

Calculating the 5735 deaths during the follow-up period of 10 years per person, the researchers found that, compared with lifelong abstinence from alcohol, hazardous use of alcohol is associated with an increased risk of death from all causes. They also noted that the more drinks were consumed on a weekly basis, the greater the risk of death from cancer.

When they compared the weekly recommended amount of exercise for adults, they found that he "seemed completely destroyed" the risk of dying from cancer due to alcohol.
