A touch of the bubbly may help you see many New Years

Who knew that when you toast to your health, the response time was so quick? Well, it turns out that champagne can help reduce inflammation, thereby reducing your risk of heart disease.

Spanish scientists found that drinking 10 daily ounces of cava (a Spanish sparkling wine) for a month, they experienced a twenty-five percent reduction in blood markers of inflammation.

Cava, like red wine, contains a considerably high level of polyphenols, which studies have shown to reduce the risk of heart disease, Alzheimer's and arthritis.

To your health, indeed.
