Wine is only good if the relaxation gained (everybody is different) is greater than the documented carcinogenic effects.

My mom is diabetic. She definitely gets relaxed from it, but I wonder if it she should cut out the "glass a day" thing.

Nutrition science, sigh. But here's the diet: The MIND diet recommends:[9] Whole grains: three or more servings a day Other vegetables: at least one a day Wine: one glass a day Green leafy vegetables (like spinach and salad greens): at least six servings a week Nuts: five servings a week Beans: at least three servings a week Berries: two or more servings a week Poultry (like chicken or turkey): two times a week Fish:…

If only I was able to stop at one glass

The only answer is to find the biggest glass

Skeptical. This diet is just eat nuts and fish with advertising for other food industries marketed on superstition. Nuts and fish provide the benefit. You can't solve a a chronic disease based on a molecular process by eating less McDonalds and more fresh berries. Not addressing the cause. IMO the cause is HPV.

MIND not "Mind".. and MIND is some acronym of acronym.

MIND indeed and thank you for pointing that out. Unfortunately, my time to edit the post has elapsed.

Arm-chair psychiatrist-ing here, but it seems to me like people who are willing and capable of thinking about their diet at this level of complexity would be more likely to do well on tests. I wonder what the results of the study would be if they had these same people eat whatever they wanted, but do the meal planning for a third person?
