Women who have one glass of wine or beer per day remain sharper mentally than women who don't.

A study by the New England Journal of Medicine found was that a group of older women (70-81) who drank moderately stayed sharper than non-drinkers; they lowered their risk of memory loss and senility by about 20 percent, Senay explains. On average, the women who drank a beer or a glass of wine each day tended to have the mental agility of someone a year-and-a-half younger than those who abstained. Sadly, the benefits were not found with larger amounts of alcohol.

I knew there was a good reason to drink wine. Now maybe I'll remember it for a while.
