Red wine and cholesterol

[anthrax]

We already knew red wine is good (when taken in moderation) but here is some other good reason to drink some:

Researchers at the university of California, Davis, have identified a group of chemicals in red wine linked to the ability to lower cholesterol.

Called saponins, these glucose-based plant compounds have been identified in an increasing number of foods, but according to the researchers, this is the first time that they have been found in wine.
