Healthy Berry-Rich Sangria for a Sparkling New Year

Red wine is brain-healthy in moderation (1 or 2 glasses), because wine cleans amyloid plaque, improving the brain’s ability to remove waste. Berries pack a neuroprotective punch, with their rich complement of fisetin and antioxidants. Raise your glass to this “low-risk-big-taste”  fruit-and-wine pair. Happy New Year!
