drink up ladies...

ot only red wine but also white wine, beer and hard liquor appear to protect against mental decline in older women, two new studies have found.
Women who consumed about a drink a day (up to 15 grams of alcohol, or about half an ounce), the researchers found, had significantly better test results - so much so that in their mental performance, they scored about a year and a half younger than the nondrinkers and those who drank 15 to 30 grams a day.
