Harvard Study Confirms Red Wine Before Bed Aids In Weight Loss

As if you needed another reason to spoil yourself with a tasty night cap!

If you like to indulge in a little vino from time to time, consider yourself far from alone. According to the Wine Institute, Americans poured themselves 893 million glasses of wine in 2014, with those numbers expected to steadily raise. And although that’s enough wine to make anyone feel like they’re overserving themselves, we have some good news for anyone who loves their Merlot or Cabernet.

The debate about whether red wine is good for your heart (and soul) or not has seemingly gone on forever, but two new studies by both Washington State University and Harvard Medical School have given us another beneficial reason to enjoy a daily glass.

As reported by women’s site PureWow, two glasses of red wine before bed can help aid in weight loss. Here’s how it works: An antioxidant in red wine called resveratrol helps certain fat cells break down much quicker, helping you shed excess pounds from your waistline.

Drinking of red wine at night has also been proven to curb sugar cravings and help prevent those late night trips to the refrigerator.

Although this is great news for vino lovers, the experts warn that daily intake should be capped (and works best) at two glasses, as excessive alcohol intake in any form is irreversibly harmful.
