Scientists claim a diet that includes wine, chocolate, garlic, and other tasty foods can reduce heart disease by 76 percent, and add years to your life.


The diet, called a 'Polymeal', is most effective for men, adding an average of 6.6 years to life expectancy, compared with men not eating the meal.


The scientists also said eating the Polymeal will ward off heart disease among men for nine years.





Women also benefit from the Polymeal. Women eating the meal can expect their life expectancy to increase by five years and the Polymeal diet can ward off the onset of heart disease by eight years.


The diet includes consuming fish four times a week, with wine, dark chocolate, fruits, vegetables, almonds and garlic, eaten daily.


In 2003, researchers indicated a 'Polypill', which included a combination of drugs taken in one dose reduced heart disease by more than 80 percent. However, the researchers of the Polymeal study were searching for a more natural non-pharmaceutical safer alternative to the Polypill.


The scientists say the Polymeal is a safe an tasty means to reduce heart disease and increase life expectancy.


The study appears in the British Medical Journal

Sounds nice, but it doesn't fit in with my diabetic diet very well.
