Rabbi Yisroel, the Koznitzer Maggid once approached an eminent wealthy Yid and questioned him about his daily diet. The wealthy Yid was extremely ascetic and proudly proceeded to explain the Maggid that all he subsisted on was one daily meal. The meal was made up of bread with salt and a jug of water and nothing more.
The Maggid scolded the Yid and encouraged him to return home and eat a full of meal of fine meat and other delectable delicacies. He also instructed him to drink aged wine and spirits and warned him otherwise.
After this occurrence, the Maggid’s talmidim questioned him as to why
he spoke to the wealthy Yid in such a manner. The Maggid explained them that if this wealthy Yid dined on meat and wine, he would feel and understand deep in his heart that the poor individuals in town should be given bread and salt in order to survive. However, if the wealthy Yid himself subsists only on dry bread and salt, he may come to think that the poor people could live on stones!
What deep insight to understand the workings of the human mind! How wise are the ways of the leaders of Klal Yisroel who always took it upon themselves to help the less fortunate of our nation.
The “French Paradox” was coined by Dr. Serge Renaud. Explaining his research, Renaud noted a profound lifestyle difference between Americans and the French — red wine consumption.
The two cultures ate the same kinds of food, yet more Americans were dying from heart attacks than the French. He proposed the theory that red wine provided some sort of cardio-protective benefit to the French despite all of the unhealthy food they ate.
Although the theory is still debated, it’s believed that red wine’s polyphenol content provides the benefit.
Red Wine Polyphenols Improve Sugar MetabolismHigh blood sugar is a risk factor for heart disease. Diabetics, for instance, are at least twice as likely to suffer a heart attack as the general population. As it turns out, the polyphenols in red wine may protect your heart by improving insulin function which lowers blood sugar.
Insulin resistance is when the cells of your body aren’t sensitive to the hormone, resulting in elevated blood sugar. This rise in blood sugar causes many problems, such as accelerated atherosclerosis and chronic inflammation.
Red wine polyphenols were shown to decrease insulin resistance between 22% and 30%, indicating improved insulin function. The drop in resistance occurred with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic red wine, proving that the polyphenols are responsible for the decrease in insulin resistance.
The bottom line is this: Red wine may protect your heart by improving insulin function. This is good news for diabetics who are at risk for heart disease.
However, please don’t go crazy with this (it’s not Purim …yet!) The study participants drank only 30 grams of red wine, which is approximately one glass a day. That’s all it took.
Alcohol Increases Good CholesterolA third group of participants was not given red wine; instead they drank 30 grams of gin a day. The researchers noted that along with the group given the alcoholic red wine, they experienced an increase in HDL-cholesterol.
Higher levels of HDL, or good cholesterol, means more fat and cholesterol is recycling back to the liver for processing and not getting “stuck” in the arterial walls.
The researchers concluded: “While ethanol [alcohol] itself exerts a protective effect on the lipid profile, the non-alcoholic fraction of red wine, mainly polyphenols, has a beneficial effect on insulin resistance.”
So when you combine the effects of the polyphenols and the ethanol, red wine is probably more cardio-protective than other types of alcoholic beverages.

Brazil’s federal corrections program recently began a program that attempts to potentially shorten their sentences and combat the extremely low literacy rates in prisons. For each book read, four days are taken off of the sentence for the year, with a maximum reduction of 48 days per year.
All the inmate has to do is read a book and write a book report, which is then submitted for evaluation. It is formally called the “Redemption through Reading” program and it seeks to give convicts a different view of the world outside while educating them for a better life afterward.

Brazilian prisoners can shorten their sentence by reading books!
I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
While it is a myth that stress can turn hair gray, stress can cause hair loss. In fact, telogen effluvium (hair loss) can begin up to three months after a stressful event.
