Italian researchers believe that both red and white wine make a good antibacterial mouthwashes. They can help fight tooth decay and cure sore throats.
Wine contains acids—particularly succinic, malic, lactic, tartaric, citric, and acetic—that inhibit the growth of several strains of strptococci bacteria involved in tooth decay and sore throat.
And like most other health benefits, red wine is better at this than white wine.
