True love ages gracefully, and so does a good wine. Yet when it comes to the heart, wine can actually help turn back the clock. People who drink light to moderate amounts of alcohol are less at risk for heart disease than teetotalers or heavy drinkers, according to the American Heart Association. To get the payoff, though, you have to play by the rules. “Light to moderate” means one or two drinks a day for men and one drink per day for women. Four ounces of wine constitutes one drink.
