Older women who have a drink or two a day have better memory skills than non-drinkers, announced researchers from the University of Texas this week."Moderate drinkers reported less depression, had higher self-reported health, performed better on instrumental everyday tasks and had improved memory performance,” said Dr. Graham McDougall, associate professor of nursing at the university, in a statement. The five-year survey, which began in 2001, is looking at men and women with an average age of 75, who live in central Texas.
