And the benefits keep on coming; wine and its antibacterial agents

According to a news release by the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, wine has been found to "combat oral bacteria."

"Overall, our findings seem to indicate that wine can act as an effective antimicrobial agent against the tested pathogenic oral streptococci and might be active in caries and upper respiratory tract pathologies prevention"
