Hooray: champagne is good for you
Three glasses of champagne a day keeps the doctor away. Whether alcohol is healthy for you or not remains a point of discussion, but now we have some good and great news. For the alcohol lovers among us and for me.
My first sip of champagne was a bit awkward. It wasn't wine, it certainly wasn't the sweet stuff I mixed with cola, and it didn't taste like beer. Now I must mention that it wasn't A-quality what I lightly drank at midnight on New Year's Eve. In short: I had to get used to it. But when I discovered Moët, I became team champagne and I've been that ever since.
Back to the news where you uncork a bottle with a firm pop (not too hard, because that's not proper). Researchers have discovered that three glasses of champagne a day can help prevent dementia and Alzheimer's. It's all in the grape. The pinot noir and pinot meunier are used to make the bubbly variant and those are the little rascals that help combat brain diseases and increase memory capacity. Look, that's news to me. Normally, I become forgetful after a glass too many, but in the case of a bottle of Moët every two days, it's actually particularly effective. Professor Jeremy Spencer calls it groundbreaking, because this is the first time it has been discovered that the consumption of champagne affects our cognitive functions. Hooray, cheers.
Oh, by the way, smart women drink wine. If you're looking for a new love, you might want to take it easy with the alcohol. And people who drink red wine are better in bed.
