Resumo: Introduction: Moderate consumption of red wine (RW) has been associated with a decrease in cardiovascular risk due to its phenolic composition. Purpose: Assessing the effects of consuming different doses of RW on the blood pressure (BP) of men during 24 hours after its ingestion. Methods: 10 normotensive male subjects (25.1±3.6 years) consumed three different doses of RW (250ml, 200ml and 150ml) randomly for three weeks; one dose was ingested per week. The BP was measured by using the Ambulatory BP Monitoring every 15 minutes during waking, and every 30 minutes during the sleep period for 24 hours. Results: There was a reduction in mean values of Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) from six to nine hours of waking period, and the Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) from nine to 12 hours of sleep compared with BP at rest. Conclusions: The moderate RW consumption significantly reduced SBP and DBP in men, with a 150ml dose sufficient to reduce and maintain better BP levels.
