Wine as an oral anti-bacterial agent

Recent research in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry indicates that wine can kill dental bacteria and is also good for your throat. Wine exposure will give off a constant antibacterial effect which wards off germs in the mouth that can cause dental plague. The researchers discovered that an isolated antibacterial compound in wine successfully kills 99.9% of the dental and sore throat bacteria. Just dont take this as a valid reason to drink excessively. It’s still alcohol and bad for your liver in massive doses.
