Drinking a glass of red wine a day could help keep patients with type 2 diabetes healthy.
A new study, conducted by the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel, alongside experts from Harvard School of Public Health and Leipzig University, claims the drink was much better at regulating cholesterol levels than white wine or mineral water.
The research was carried out on 220 type 2 diabetics over a two-year period.
Individuals that consumed a 150ml glass of red wine with dinner had higher levels of 'good cholesterol'.
Millions of adults suffer from the condition.
