"Men who drank about 200ml of wine a day were nearly six months biologically younger than non-drinkers, according to a study conducted at LUM university in Italy."
"Biological age, based on the physiological age of cells, tissues and organs, is considered to be a better indicator of the risk of disease and mortality than chronological age."
"Moderate wine consumption, but not overall alcohol intake, may contribute to slower biological ageing in men. Components such as polyphenols are a plausible explanation."
A study found that men who consume about 200ml of wine daily are nearly six months biologically younger than non-drinkers. Non-alcoholic compounds in wine, particularly polyphenols, are believed to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, contributing to slower biological ageing. Women do not experience the same benefits due to different alcohol metabolism and hormonal profiles. The research analyzed data from 22,000 individuals, using blood samples to assess biological age based on various health markers. The findings suggest moderate wine consumption may positively impact biological ageing in men.
