That’s generally true but each patient needs to be evaluated as a whole. Connery’s doctor has the whole (or nearly so) story and the red wine may be doing him more harm than good.

“Thats generally true but each patient needs to be evaluated as a whole.”
Well, I live life on the risky side, and at 65 I feel fine.
I go to a doctor, maybe every 2 years to draw my blood and send it off for analysis to check most everything.
I am not under any stress, and I have no one to depend on me.
I have high LDL, but also high HDL. I have no interest in going on statins. My BP is always text book perfect.
I sometimes think that health concerns and regular doctor visits are unhealthy, haha
Of course, I could drop dead as soon as I hit the send button.
I might add, one of my brothers is a doctor, age 72.
He lives by the same attitude, also traveling the world.
His twin brother has 5 doctors, is a borderline hypochondriac, and is always worrying about health.
He is still married....Maybe thats his problem, haha

One hundred percent of wine drinkers die eventually. By contrast, one hundred percent of non-wine drinkers die eventually.

It worked also, I would sit back, put my feet on the chair in front of me (if possible), and watch my GPA improve by at least a point, as I stopped making the silly mistakes that were killing me.
I watched my roomate drink her way through law review and end up as a souse-lawyer. She wrote better drunk but the rest of her life stunk.

Lol, then I would be like Theresa Kerry and her vodka soaked raisins! Blueberries in Port do sound better.

Ruby Port is a heavy sweet red wine. The blueberries absorb the flavor and sweetness. I can also recommend using the soaked berries in a rutabaga pie
