A researcher with University of Michigan Health System has found the sweeter side of Valentine’s Day indulgences. While the day is known to make or break the emotional state of the heart, Steven F. Bolling, M.D has found a physical effect of some treats typical of the day. UMHS News Service describes the results of Bolling’s study: “There are components in tart cherries, grapes and wine that can lower blood pressure and protect heart muscle. And a glass wine and massage can do wonders for lowering stress and anxiety.” [Source]
