I read a book on the subject of Resveratrol in red wine. I believe Resveratrol is the main ingredient that everyone is excited about. Resveratrol is a rich source of anti-oxidants. Well, one important thing I learned is that oxygen destroys Resveratrol. If the wine is exposed to oxygen during the making of it, during the bottling process or during consumption and storage, it is most likely of little value, as far as anti-oxidants go.
But wine will still thin your blood. So if one has any build up of plaque in their arteries, it will help to keep blood flowing through narrowed arteries. In this case it's not a cure or prevention; it just may help to keep you alive a little longer.
There is a way to reverse coronary artery disease but it involves a rather strict lifestyle. And my experience has been that most people would rather die than make the (long term) effort. In case you ever decide to give it a try, or just want to learn about it, there are many books on this subject.
One is: "The Cardiovascular Cure" by John Cooke MD, Ph.D.
