    Anyone here drinks red wine before going to sleep (Not everyday of course)? If so, why? Reason asking this is that I heard it is good to the body in some way although i have no facts or anything to justify it. :~

    I drink a bottle every evening. It is damn good for you, full of good stuff like flavinoids, tannins, trace ellements etc.

      Well, red wine helps produce blood cells, but I don't really know why especially it is better to drink it before going to sleep. As far as I know it is good to drink one glass of red wine per day; though I don't drink that daily I make up for it when going out. I usually drink for two weeks in advance ;)

        not quite. it helps keeping the blood vessels without fat in it. but drinking more than 2 glasses a day produces the opposite effect !

          please read my other post. BTW, i never heard of "drinking before going to sleep". If this is true, then we can call the guy an alcoholic. what cardiologists advise is one or 2 small glasses per day, during a meal preferably.

              I used to drink red wine in order to sleep, with great success. If I had trouble sleeping, a single glass of dry red before bed took care of that problem very quickly. More I cannot tell you.

                Well, yes. People like that drink before bed in order to forget their problems, but half their problems ARE because of drinking (poor judgment, bad temper, hangover headaches). It would make more sense for them to seek help, but alcoholism makes for a very troubled mind, so they are caught in an infinite loop if no one makes it a point to help them. Roswell

                      When i was in france i used to have a small glass of red-wine every day (not before going to sleep) to beat the cold.

                        It has the same wonderful effect as drinking it at any other time, but avoids the sleepy pill for those who need and gives better rest for those on the fringe.

                            Beer, except in great quantities, has never helped me sleep. Beer is always a pick-me-up for me. Hops are supposed to be a relaxant, but I seriously doubt the quantity of hops used in beer is enough.

                              I've never heard a bigger load of crap! Nobody said they couldn't sleep without alcohol, and that would be the only indication of alcoholism apparent anywhere in this thread.

                                        I used to drink red wine in order to sleep, with great success. If I had trouble sleeping, a single glass of dry red before bed took care of that problem very quickly. More I cannot tell you.

                                        I used to drink two-three pints of burbon whiskey or black-label whiskey (higher proof) to go to sleep, it worked even better. But I wouldn't recommend that, I still woke up to the same problems that were keeping me awake.

                                          OK, besides that.

                                          My anger, although maybe a little sharp[1], is, I think, justified. You state that is someone is drinking before sleep, we can call him an alcoholic. "BTW, i never heard of "drinking before going to sleep". If this is true, then we can call the guy an alcoholic." I am now calmer, yet still not happy that you make this assertion regarding someone's addiction to a substance based on, nothing, really. [1] I have a cold and am somewhat grumpy. If my "all of my anger" was a little much, I apologise.
