Give Grandma some vino

A team of researchers at Oxford University working with colleagues at the University of Oslo, says that a combination of wine, dark chocolate, and tea in moderate amounts enhances cognitive performance in the elderly and lowers the risk of dementia. This is because all three are rich in polyphenolic compounds called flavonoids. So, what's a moderate amount of wine? Researchers say 1 small glass a day would do the trick..and yet ANOTHER reason to drink wine..gotta love it..
