welcome back to health Vibes you know um
0:03
sometimes the most fascinating deep
0:04
Dives you know come for the simplest
0:06
questions M and today we're tackling one
0:09
you sent in okay can a glass of red wine
0:12
actually be good for you interesting so
0:15
we're cracking open in a YouTube video
0:17
by Dr Merrick Scot leus okay he's a
0:20
Polish doctor who breaks down the
0:21
science behind this whole age-old idea
0:24
yeah it's certainly a popular belief
0:26
right and Dr scotus Dives right into the
0:29
heart of it okay this compound called
0:31
Resveratrol Resveratrol found in grapes
0:34
and red wine okay Resveratrol so before
0:36
we get into the specifics yeah remind me
0:39
what exactly makes something an
0:40
antioxidant sure and like why why do we
0:42
care about those great question yeah
0:45
think of it this way our bodies are
0:46
constantly fighting off damage from
0:48
things like you know pollution stress
0:51
even just the process of breathing oh
0:53
wow this creates unstable molecules
0:56
called free radicals which can wreak
0:58
havoc on our cells ah antioxidants are
1:01
like tiny Warriors that neutralize those
1:03
free radicals protecting our bodies from
1:06
that damage okay so Resveratrol is one
1:08
of these little Warriors exactly and Dr
1:10
scula highlights 10 potential health
1:13
benefits linked to it he does right yes
1:15
okay he starts with stroke prevention
1:18
which caught my eye really the video
1:20
explains that Resveratrol increases
1:22
levels of an enzyme called heem
1:24
oxygenase okay which protects brain
1:27
cells from damage so if someone were to
1:30
have a stroke those brain cells would
1:32
have an extra layer of Defense yeah
1:34
thanks to the RIS veratrol that's the
1:36
idea the research suggests it could
1:38
potentially lessen the impact of the
1:40
stroke wow which is pretty remarkable
1:43
when you think of it that is really
1:44
remarkable if you're enjoying this deep
1:46
dive into the science of red wine don't
1:49
forget to like this episode And
1:50
subscribe to the health vies podcast for
1:52
more fascinating Explorations yes now
1:55
what's next on Dr scotus list of
1:57
Resveratrol benefits well this one might
1:59
surprise
2:00
vision loss oh the video focuses on two
2:03
conditions diabetic retinopathy and
2:05
macular degeneration uhhuh both involve
2:08
uncontrolled blood vessel growth in the
2:10
eye mhm which can damage vision and
2:13
Resveratrol helps with that how it seems
2:15
to inhibit this uncontrolled growth okay
2:18
acting as a sort of regulator for blood
2:20
vessel formation interesting this is
2:22
particularly important in the delicate
2:24
environment of the eye so it's not just
2:27
protecting brain cells right but also
2:29
helping to preserve our eyesight exactly
2:32
this Ros marrol is shaping up to be
2:34
quite the multitasker indeed and that's
2:37
not all okay Dr scelus then moves on to
2:39
something a little more familiar blood
2:42
pressure uh that makes sense red wine
2:45
and heart health it's a classic pairing
2:47
it is and the video explains that it's
2:49
not just Resveratrol at work here okay
2:51
wed wine also contains procyanidins
2:54
pridans which help maintain healthy
2:56
blood vessels and contribute to lower
2:58
blood pressure so it's like a team
2:59
effort these different compounds working
3:02
together for a healthier cardiovascular
3:04
system mhm this is getting really
3:06
interesting absolutely and we're just
3:08
scratching the surface don't forget to
3:10
like this episode And subscribe to the
3:11
channel so you don't miss the rest of
3:13
our Deep dive into the potential health
3:16
benefits of red wine okay we'll do now
3:19
this next one is a biggie Dr scelus
3:22
mentions that Resveratrol could
3:24
potentially be beneficial for certain
3:26
types of cancer yes let's start with
3:28
colon cancer sure what is the video say
3:30
about that the video sites research from
3:32
2015 indicating that small doses of
3:34
Resveratrol could shrink colon tumor
3:36
size by up to 50% wow 50% but why small
3:41
doses specifically right wouldn't more
3:44
Resveratrol be even better that's where
3:46
it gets interesting right the research
3:48
suggests that large doses were actually
3:50
less effective oh it seems cancer cells
3:52
can develop a resistance to Resveratrol
3:54
if they're bombarded with too much of it
3:56
so it's about finding that sweet spot
3:58
the right amount to get the benefit I'm
4:01
starting to see why people call this a
4:03
deep dive it certainly is and the video
4:05
is packed with these fascinating details
4:08
okay next up we tackle a bit of a
4:09
paradox the potential benefits of red
4:12
wine for breast cancer even though
4:15
alcohol consumption can increase the
4:16
risk okay that seems counterintuitive
4:19
how does Dr scasas explain that he
4:22
highlights that while alcohol itself can
4:24
increase risk grape skin contains
4:26
compounds that act as aromatase
4:28
Inhibitors okay this means they can
4:30
lower estrogen levels okay which is
4:32
significant because estrogen can fuel
4:35
the growth of some breast cancers so
4:37
it's this Balancing Act potential
4:39
benefits of certain compounds in the
4:41
wine against the known risks of alcohol
4:44
itself it's all about Nuance isn't it
4:46
precisely and it reinforces the
4:48
importance of moderation right and
4:51
Consulting with the healthc care
4:52
professional of course speaking of
4:54
nuance yeah we're just getting started
4:56
on these potential benefits if you're
4:58
finding this information Val Val don't
5:00
forget to like this podcast And
5:02
subscribe to the channel there's much
5:04
more to come awesome let's um let's
5:06
delve deeper into the cancer connection
5:08
shall we Dr Scott Lis next discusses
5:11
prostate and lung cancer okay which also
5:13
seem to be influenced by red wine
5:15
consumption okay let's unpack that what
5:17
does the research say about prostate
5:19
cancer well Dr Scott silis cites a 2007
5:22
study okay that found men who drank
5:25
moderate amounts of red wine had a lower
5:27
risk of developing prostate cancer
5:30
interesting and what exactly qualifies
5:32
as moderate in this context the study
5:35
specified around 150 milliters per day
5:38
okay essentially one small glass so a
5:41
little bit seems to go a long way at
5:43
least according to that research what
5:44
about lung cancer the research on that
5:47
is still developing okay but early
5:49
findings suggest that red wine may slow
5:52
the growth of lung cancer cells okay
5:54
however it's important to clarify that
5:56
this doesn't mean red wine is a cure for
5:58
lung cancer right for research is
6:00
definitely needed to understand the full
6:01
implications absolutely it's about
6:04
understanding the nuances and not
6:05
jumping to conclusions exactly now
6:07
shifting gears a bit Dr scotus also
6:09
mentions a couple of surprising benefits
6:11
related to skin Health yes acne and even
6:14
tooth decay those are certainly
6:16
unexpected aren't they yeah let's start
6:19
with acne okay the video explains that
6:21
resveratrol's anti-inflammatory and
6:23
antioxidant properties could help combat
6:26
this common skin condition so a glass of
6:29
red wine for clear skin I'm intrigued
6:32
but is it really that simple well not
6:35
quite the research suggests that ratol
6:37
is most effective when combined with
6:38
topical benzo peroxide okay a common
6:41
acne treatment ah so it's more about
6:44
Resveratrol working in Synergy with
6:47
existing treatments right rather than
6:48
being a Magic Bullet on its own exactly
6:51
it's about understanding how different
6:52
approaches can work together okay and as
6:54
for tooth decay the video highlights
6:57
that red wine may actually inhibit the
6:58
formation of plaque which is the first
7:01
stage of that process wait seriously I
7:03
always thought red wine was more known
7:05
for staining teeth than protecting them
7:07
it can certainly do both but it's
7:09
fascinating to see how these seemingly
7:13
contradictory effects play out it really
7:15
underscores the complexity of this topic
7:17
I'm loving this deep dive it's full of
7:20
these unexpected twists and turns
7:22
speaking of which we're only halfway
7:24
through Dr Scott cis's list of potential
7:27
benefits if you're enjoying this
7:28
exploration don't don't forget to like
7:30
this episode And subscribe to the health
7:32
Vibes podcast for more fascinating
7:34
insights now let's move on to the next
7:36
one dementia dementia is a complex
7:40
condition right and Research into its
7:42
causes and potential treatments is
7:44
ongoing okay however Dr Scott list
7:47
points to resveratrol's potential role
7:49
in supporting brain health particularly
7:52
as we age that's certainly relevant for
7:54
many of our listeners yeah my own family
7:56
has a history of dementia oh wow so I'm
7:58
always Keen to learn more about anything
8:00
that could potentially help how does
8:02
Resveratrol play a role in this context
8:04
well it seems to support healthy blood
8:06
flow to the brain okay keeping those
8:08
blood vessels elastic and clear okay
8:10
Resveratrol also reduces the stickiness
8:12
of platelets further enhancing
8:14
circulation so it's like clearing the
8:16
traffic jams on those brain highways
8:18
ensuring a smooth flow of oxygen and
8:20
nutrients to those crucial cells that's
8:22
a great analogy and when the brain is
8:24
well nourished and oxygenated it's
8:26
better equipped to function optimally
8:29
and potentially resist age related
8:31
decline that's encouraging to hear now
8:34
last but not least we come to a benefit
8:36
that many people probably wouldn't
8:37
associate with red wine uhhuh skin aging
8:41
ah yes the Quest for youthful skin is a
8:44
Timeless Pursuit mhm and Dr scus
8:47
suggests that red wine might have a role
8:49
to play thanks to the flavonoids it
8:51
contains flavonoids okay remind me what
8:53
those are and why they matter for our
8:55
skin flavonoids are another type of
8:57
antioxidant found in wine M and they act
8:59
like little Shields against sun damage
9:01
when those harmful UV rays from the Sun
9:04
hit our skin they can create reactive
9:06
oxygen species or free radicals these
9:09
free radicals damage the fats and our
9:11
skin tissue and even our DNA oh wow
9:13
contributing to wrinkles and age spots
9:16
so the flavonoids are like little
9:18
bodyguards for our skin cells
9:19
neutralizing those harmful free
9:22
radicals but doesn't red wine stain
9:24
teeth I'm having a hard time picturing
9:27
it as a beauty Elixir it's true that
9:29
wine can stain teeth but those stains
9:31
are primarily on the surface and can be
9:34
removed with proper dental hygiene okay
9:36
the potential benefits we're discussing
9:38
happen at a deeper level protecting the
9:40
skin from damage at a cellular level
9:42
that's a good point it's all about
9:44
seeing the bigger picture mhm and
9:46
speaking of seeing the bigger picture
9:48
we've covered so much ground today we
9:50
have Dr scotus has presented a
9:52
compelling case for the potential health
9:54
benefits of red wine but before we wrap
9:57
up don't forget to like this episode and

10:07
we'll connect the dots and explore some
10:09
broader implications of what we've
10:10
learned
10:12
today welcome back to health Vibes we've
10:15
been on quite a journey with Dr
10:16
scotchlas exploring the potential health
10:18
benefits of red wine and its star player
10:20
RIS veratrol it's been a fascinating
10:22
Deep dive hasn't it from protecting our
10:24
brains and eyes to potentially fighting
10:26
cancer and even slowing down skin aging
10:29
the range of benefits is pretty
10:31
remarkable it really is but as we wrap
10:34
up I keep coming back to this question
10:36
if Resveratrol is so potent are there
10:39
other hidden gems like it out there in
10:41
the world of food and drink that's a
10:43
great question and the answer is a
10:45
resounding yes Resveratrol is just one
10:48
example of the countless beneficial
10:49
compounds found in nature it's like a
10:52
whole Secret World of natural remedies
10:54
waiting to be discovered okay I'm all
10:56
ears yeah what are some other examples
10:58
of foods or beverages that pack a
10:59
similar punch well green tea is a
11:01
fantastic one it's rich in polyphenols
11:03
another type of antioxidant that's been
11:05
linked to a whole host of benefits
11:07
reducing the risk of heart disease
11:09
protecting against certain cancers even
11:11
boosting brain function I love green tea
11:13
I had no idea it was such a Powerhouse
11:16
what else should we be adding to our
11:17
shopping lists don't forget about
11:19
berries especially blueberries and
11:21
strawberries they're bursting with
11:23
anthocyanins which give them their
11:25
vibrant colors and also have incredible
11:28
anti-inflammatory and immune boosting
11:30
properties so eating a colorful diet
11:32
isn't just aesthetically pleasing it's
11:34
actually good for our health that's a
11:36
win-win in my book absolutely Nature has
11:38
provided us with an abundance of
11:40
delicious and nutritious foods that can
11:42
truly support our well-being it's all
11:44
about making informed choices and
11:46
incorporating a variety of these Foods
11:48
into our daily routines this deep diet
11:51
has been a real eyeopener I feel like I
11:53
have a whole new appreciation for the
11:55
power of nature to support our health
11:57
and I'm definitely going to be looking
11:58
at my wine glass and my grocery list a
12:00
little differently from now on that's
12:02
what we love to hear remember knowledge
12:04
is power the more we understand about
12:07
how our bodies work and the role that
12:08
these natural compounds play the better
12:10
equipped we are to make healthy choices
12:12
for ourselves couldn't agree more and as
12:15
always we encourage you to chat with
12:16
