Red Wine Is Good For Your Brain - I Knew It!

Recent research has shown that drinking red wine helps you think. Who’d have thought?

Men and women both did better in mental arithmetic tests after being given ‘resveratrol’, the wonder ingredient in red wine, or more precisely in the skins of red wine grapes.

The plant chemical, said to have abilities from burning off junk food and warding off heart disease, to being an anti-inflammatory and preventing as well as curing cancer, is believed to increase blood flow to the brain.

These are big claims. In the meantime, I’ll just pour another glass of red wine. I used to drink red wine because it tastes so good. But now I’m drinking it purely for medicinal purposes!

Cheers!
