Tuesday, September 03, 2002Dr. Michel de Lorgeril of the Joseph Fourier University of Grenoble, France and colleagues studied 353 men aged 40 to 60 who had just had heart attacks. ...Writing in the journal Circulation, published by the American Heart Association, De Lorgeril's team said the men had 104 cardiovascular complications such as a heart attack or stroke over the next year. Thirty-six of the complications occurred among men who abstained from alcohol, 34 among men who drank fewer than two glasses of wine a day, 18 among those who drank about two glasses a day, and 16 among men who drank an average of four to five glasses of wine a day, they found. No mention of what the drinking habits were of the 249 men who didn't have complications. posted by Sydney on 9/03/2002 06:40:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
