Alas, it's not 'three bottles and a bag of Doritos', but it is GOOD FOR YOU

The perfect amount of red wine to have every day has been revealed

​To many of us, the ideal daily amount of red wine is pretty much 'a constant drip connected to me from about 2pm please, thanks - and can you bring some cheese?' but actual doctor types (sigh) have apparently nailed the actual ideal daily amount to keep us healthy and swimming in goodness 'n' stuff.

Alas, it doesn't involve the aforementioned drip, but it's not PUT DOWN THE WINE either.

Researchers in Israel gathered a group of 224 people to help them look at the effect of food and drink on type 2 diabetes. Group members had to follow a diet plan for two years, and opt to drink a glass of either water, white wine or red wine each night with dinner.

The red wine drinkers were noted to have significantly increased their levels of  good HDL cholesterol, and both wine drinkers were found to have better sleep records than the water drinkers.

Sooo it's a glass a day with a meal, in theory. Good enough for ya?
