Moderate drinking improves thinking skills

[JackDragna]

REGULARLY having a glass of wine, or two, with dinner could sharpen your dinner party conversation. But abstain altogether, or drink too much, and you could be considered a dullard.

People who average two alcoholic drinks a day are better thinkers than teetotallers and very heavy drinkers, a new study has found.

An Australian National University study of 7000 people has found those who drink in moderation have better verbal skills, memory and speed of thinking than those at the extremes of the drinking spectrum.
