Kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen wie Herzinfarkt, Schlaganfall und Herzmuskelschwäche stellen die häufigsten Ursachen für Morbidität und Sterblichkeit in den westlichen Industrieländern dar. Die Reduktion kardiovaskulärer Risikofaktoren ist eine wesentliche Intervention, deren Nutzen zur Verminderung von Morbidität und Sterblichkeit belegt ist. So mancher Patient, der kardiovaskuläre Risikofaktoren aufweist oder sogar schon eine Komplikation wie Herzinfarkt oder Schlaganfall erlitten hat, beklagt sich häufig darüber, dass der Kardiologe „alles verbietet, was Spaß macht”. In den letzten Jahren haben zahlreiche epidemiologische Untersuchungen Hinweise darauf geliefert, dass Alkohol in geringen Mengen das koronare Risiko nicht verschlechert, sondern sogar günstig beeinflussen kann. Spekulationen über die Menge und die Art der zu konsumierenden Getränke haben eine ganze Reihe von wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen stimuliert. Darüber hinaus sind die Mechanismen des protektiven Effektes eines moderaten Alkohol- und insbesondere auch Weingenusses Gegenstand aktuellster Untersuchungen.
Abb. 1 Zeitgenössisches Bildnis der heiligen Hildegard von Bingen. Rezept des Herzweins: 10 frische Petersilienstängel samt Blättern in 1 l Wein (weiß oder rot) und in 1 - 2 Essl. Weinessig geben und 10 min auf kleiner Flamme kochen (schäumt!), 300 g echten Bienenhonig dazugeben und noch 4 min leicht kochen, Herzwein abseihen und heiß in Flaschen füllen, die vorher mit starkem Alkohol ausgespült wurden. Flaschen gut verschließen. Bodensatz, der sich bildet, schadet nicht und kann mitgetrunken werden. Modifiziert aus: Causae et Curae (Ursachen und Behandlung der Krankheiten, erschienen ca 1150). (Wir danken den Schwestern der Benediktinerinnenabtei St. Hildegard, Rüdesheim am Rhein). Copyright: akg-images
