'' , Wine Praised As Relief To Tension : SAN FRANCISCO 'I'PD The moderate use of wine has been ..recommended as an aid in the relief of strains and tensions of .modern living. ' Millon Silverman, medical re '.'search director for Ihe California Wine Industry, said Wednesday j'esearchers at Yale University believe that wine has survived as 'a beverage for one reason its ability to provide a mild but long Jasting relief from emotional ten- sion. . The Vale investigators placed .normal humans under laboratory conditions of extreme stress and :found a man's emotional tension i;index could he reduced by re markably small quantities of al- ;.cohol, according to Silverman, a .-biochemist. "A slight but dislinct drop in -.the index could he produced by '.as little as three ounces of a .California burgundy, or by the ;,ame quantity of plain diluted al icohol." Silverman told the San Francisco Advertising Club. "When larger quantities of wine were administered, tension was relieved slill further and more ef fectively, without causing intoxi cation." he added. However, Sil verman noled that plain alcohol or beverages of mostly alcohol used in larger amounts not only .failed to relieve tension b u t caused it. The wine industry has not found -all the answers tn account for the different reaction of wine, but one explanation is that plain alcohol is absorbed by the blood stream -faster than alcohol from wine, he Tsaid. ' "The Vale physiologists and '.psychiatrists and nutrition ex perts feel they have produced "fome concrete evidence which might help explain the use ol wine "for thousands of years," Silver--man said. : He added that the safest time -to drink alcoholic beverages is purine meals when lood in the stomach produces slower absorp tion and protects the brain by a ;hich sugar level in the bloodstream.
