A study recently concluded in Portugal indicates that the consumption of red wine may prevent the brain from suffering damage caused by alcohol.

     According to Neuroscience, rats that were given red wine did not experience memory damage, while those that were given pure alcohol did.

     In fact, the rats that were given red wine performed identically to those that had been given water.

     Scientists concluded that the existence of antioxidants in red wine was responsible for the outcome of the testing.
