Share this story...

We already know that red wine can be good for your heart; now there’s another reason to pour yourself a glass.

Scientists at the University of Alberta have discovered that a powerful anti-oxidant found in red wine could help prevent diabetes.

The research is still being developed, but the anti-oxidant may prevent developing obesity later in life by reducing abdominal fat.

The natural compound is also found in grapes, nuts and berries.
