Benifits of a drink a day

Raise your glass to long-lasting good health: Women who are moderate drinkers(one to two alcoholic drinks a day) at midlife are more likely than nondrinkers to reach age 70 without having any
major chronic disease(including cancer, diabetes and heart disease) or major cognitive or physical impairment, according to a new Harvard study. What's more, the more often you drink, the better. Those who had one or two drinks 5 to seven days a week were much more likely to stay well into their golden years than those who drank only once or twice a week. Now there's a prescription we'll gladly stick to!
