A Daily Drink May Help Prevent Cognitive Decline as Women Age

Chalk up another benefit for a drink a day.
That moderate alcohol consumption may be beneficial to the heart is widely known. But a study published in today's New England Journal of Medicine found that consuming a small amount of alcohol -- a drink per day or less -- can help prevent cognitive decline in women as they age.

I knew it! I just knew it! Now I can enjoy my glass of wine. However, my doctor has told me that alcohol consumption can increase the incidence of breast cancer in women. :(
