At 1,013 meters in length with a total area of 8 hectares, the swimming pool at the San Alfonso del Mar resort in Algarrobo, Chile is the largest in the world. It was listed officially as the largest
swimming pool by area in the Guinness Book of World Records in December
of 2006. The pool holds a staggering 250 million liters (66 million
gallons) of water and is the equivalent to about 6,000 8-meter long
pools. Located about 90 kilometers (56 miles) from Santiago, San Alfonso
del Mar is a major tourist attraction and popular destination for both
Chileans and tourists from around the world.
Great Blue Hole, one of the world’s most recognizable natural wonders. It is located in Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System, about 60 miles away from Belize City.

It has been created as a cause of sea level increase about 65,000 years ago.
Men with a high risk for heart disease had lower blood pressure after drinking nonalcoholic red wine every day for four weeks, according to a new study published this week in the American Heart Association journal C
irculation Research.
Nonalcoholic red wine increased study participants’ levels of nitric oxide, which helped decrease both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, researchers said.
Nitric oxide is a molecule in the body that helps blood vessels relax and allows more blood to reach the heart and other organs.
Researchers studied 67 men with diabetes or three or more cardiovascular risk factors who ate a common diet plus one of the following drinks:
about 10 ounces of red wine, nonalcoholic red wine or about three ounces of gin.
All of the men tried each diet/ beverage combination for four weeks. The red wine and nonalcoholic wine contained equal amounts of polyphenols, an antioxidant that decreases blood pressure.
During the red wine phase, the men had very little reduction in blood pressure, and there was no change from drinking gin.
However, after drinking nonalcoholic red wine, blood pressure decreased by about 6mmHg in systolic and 2mmHg in diastolic blood pressure… possibly reducing the risk of heart disease by 14 percent and stroke by as much as 20 percent.
Researchers concluded that the alcohol in red wine weakens its ability to lower blood pressure.
But polyphenols … still present after alcohol is removed from wine … are likely the beneficial element in wine.
