Epidemiological evidence indicates that moderate alcohol consumption is associated with a significant decrease in the incidence of certain cardiovascular disorders, which can lead to impaired quality of life and to death. However, there are no objective data suggesting a cause-effect relationship and detailed research based on definitive working hypotheses is needed. We tested two flavonoids in man and found that these substances can belong, at least in part, to a wine-dependent mechanism, which leads to increased adenosine plasma levels. If these results could be confirmed by analyzing all the possible influences leading to blood nucleoside increase, a hypothesis of diet-dependent cellular preconditioning could be discussed
