- Abstract
Oxidative stress and thrombosis have been reported to be increased in diabetic patients and involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular complications. It has been demonstrated in diabetic patients that consumption of a meal is accompanied by the generation of an oxidative stress and of a hypercoagulable state. It is well recognized that red wine shows antithrombotic activity and that its ingestion increases plasma antioxidant capacity in man. In this study the possibility that red wine consumption may reduce the oxidative stress and thrombosis produced postprandially in diabetic patients has been evaluated.
