Works for me..and glad that it doesn't take long to reap the rewards...BD

Attention, wine (and beer and martini) lovers: After years of flip-flopping, research seems to be settling in alcohol’s favor.Raise your glass and say cheers….

“The healthiest people do include moderate drinking in their lifestyle,” says Eric Rimm, Sc.D., associate professor of epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston. You can reap alcohol’s health benefits within weeks, and the gains accumulate over time.

(Stick to one drink a day, and fewer than seven a week.)

To your heart! To your pancreas!
To your joints! To your heart!

To feeling great all around!
