Chocolate, coffee, red wine no help to heart
According to the Heart Foundation, we should not use chocolate, coffee, red wine or antioxidant supplements for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease or for maintenance of heart health: http://bit.ly/gHFX2t. ...
Helen says: You would have to eat a massive amount of chocolate and drink a massive amount of coffee and red wine to get any benefits of the antioxidants they contain, while at the same time that would cause other health issues!
However, I do beleive that the Heart Foundation is burying its head in the sand about the value of taking anti-oxidant supplements to prevent heart disease.
Here is just one of many studies that prove otherwise – Improve vascular health.
For further information here is an informative video about Coronory Heart Disease.
My mother was on blood pressure medication for many years before she died of a massive heart attack.
Meanwhile I take optimal levels of antioxidant supplements, eat a healthy diet, visit my dentist to ensure that I have good oral health, exercise and enjoy red wine, coffee and chocolate in moderation.
