"Red wine isn't the only disease-fighting drink on the bar menu: Researchers at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth have discovered a new compound in cranberries (the juice of which is a main ingredient in a cosmopolitan cocktail) that inhibits the growth and spread of cancer cells. Bonus: The compound may be most active in alcohol. Just stick to one cocktail - other research shows that consuming more than two drinks per day is linked with an increased risk of cancer."
