Red wine may benefit your cardiovascular system in yet another way: by preventing strokes. Johns Hopkins researchers found that mice fed a moderate dose of resveratrol, which is found in grape skins and seeds. The mice fed the compound suffered 40% less brain damage when the researchers then induced strokes. Researchers surmise that resveratrol may both help prevent and protect strokes in humans, too.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.
