What is the New Year associated with? For Russians, first of all, with frothy champagne! However, like all noble drinks, it should be drunk in a special way. Only by observing a few rules will you fully enjoy the pleasant taste. Happy New Year!

In the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, it is said that pouring a drink into a glass must be at an angle to retain more carbon dioxide than pouring it vertically down to the bottom of the glass.

Champagne, unlike other wines, undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle. This process is the capture of carbon dioxide, which breaks down in wine and forms the famous bubbles. Over 600 different chemical components are added to the carbon dioxide in champagne, each of which complements the aroma, making it unique.

But even with this aroma, champagne would be an ordinary white wine, if not for tiny bubbles, writes Moskovsky Komsomolets. As the bubbles rise from the bottom of the glass, they drag the molecules of those 600 scent components with them, exploding on the surface, tickling the nose and stimulating receptors.

As previously found out by experts, champagne has a beneficial effect on health. In particular, experts at the University of Reading found that the drink is rich in polyphenols, plant chemicals that dilate blood vessels, increasing the concentration of nitric oxide in the blood. As a result, the stress on the heart and brain is reduced. A small amount of champagne can relieve hypertension.

Last month, nutritionists, especially for girls who are worried about a slim figure, which is not easy to maintain during the holidays, suggested a champagne-based diet.

The meal plan is to consume 1 to 2 servings of champagne per day, while maintaining a healthy diet. The nutritional strategy does not imply constant malnutrition, however, consumption should still be limited to 1200-1400 calories per day, which should come mainly with nutritious, high-quality and tasty foods.
