When a number of studies showed a connection between resveratrol - a chemical found in red wine - and positive effects on the brain, tipplers worldwide had a new way to justify their consumption. Unfortunately, the negative health effects of alcohol vastly outweigh any of the positives and drinkers are statistically more likely to suffer from dementia, not less. Although the health benefits of resveratrol are real, the amount you get from a glass of wine is one one-thousandth the amount you'd need for a therapeutic dose. Stick to water, buddy!
