Cracking the Wine Code is about making wine at home with medicinal herbs for the specific goal of increasing longevity and extending human life. Can you increase your lifespan by drinking wine?For many individuals, the answer is a resounding yes. Many detailed scientific studies covering hundreds of thousands of subjects suggest that on average, moderate wine drinkers live longer than non-drinkers or heavy drinkers. However, every individual has a unique response to all medicinal compounds, including wine. Thus, any longevity program involving medicine, nutrition or exercise, is a deeply personal decision best made in consultation with a licensed natural healthcare professional.We do know that you can: -Make wine with 300%-500% greater polyphenol content than cabernet sauvignon, at lower alcohol levels-Increase and stabilize resveratrol levels to the optimal (hormetic) range-Reduce residual sugar levels to under 1 gram per glass, suitable for paleo and ketogenic diets-Formulate genetic herbal equivalents to promising but dangerous prescription drugs and include them in wine formulas to supercharge absorption-Identify nutraceutical supplements to counter side effects of alcohol consumption-Increase wine's critical antibacterial and antiviral abilities-Increase wine's ability to decrease mTOR levels-Formulate wines to increase telomere length, and verify the results using over-the-counter lab tests-Design and make wines to clear senescent cells and possibly reverse aging, instead of just slowing it downTo do this, Cracking The Wine Code provides detailed instructions on making biodynamic, organic wines at home, using fruits and herbs from your home garden, local farmer's market or health food store. To provide ideas for new formulas, it also provides a Materia Medica, that is, a catalog of ingredients listed with their medicinal properties, contraindications and side effects. Most importantly, it provides concrete guidelines on how to design specific herbal wine formulas based on the emerging science of anti-agingRight now modern science is in the early stages of what promise to be great advances in human lifespan extension. Much of this research uses pharmaceutical drugs and biotechnology to implement the anti-aging treatments. This book maps the most promising of these protocols into organic, biodynamic herbal wine formulas that target the same biological pathways that the high tech treatments do, without the high toxicity levels.The formulas in Cracking The Wine Code are simple to make, require no chemicals, and are ready to drink in about three weeks. If you've never made wine before, no worries. The difficulty level is a bit less than making a homemade dinner.
