A recent study says that consumption of a glass of wine every day can protect one's memory in old age.
"Alcohol consumption is restricted, the glass alone every day, seniors can protect the brain from cognitive decline that triggers Alzheimer's disease," said researchers from the Universities of Kentucky and Maryland.
Not only that, researchers convey that alcohol contains anti- inflammatory that can protect the body from various diseases. Call it dementia, stroke, coronary heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.
As reported by the Daily Mail, there is actually a gene called APOE e4 a precursor of Alzheimer's disease. But with every day that alcohol consumption is limited, these genes can be' turned off' function that will decrease the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
A total of 619 elderly Americans aged 69-92 years were included in the study. Unfortunately, only about 80 percent of seniors who get the benefits of drinking wine every day, while the rest did not feel the positive and negative effects.
The results then reported in the journal Alcohol and Alcoholism.
