Champagne is good for you as well as Red wine.

  Need to lose weight? Champagne may be the alcoholic beverage to turn to if someone is looking to lose a little weight, as it is as a rule is lower in calories than red wine, white wine or beer.
   And that is not all that champagne has to offer.  Like red and white wines, champagne has heart-healthy properties, according to some study's.  Researchers found that, as in red wine, champagne has a positive effect on endothelial function, a strong indicator of heart disease. Study results indicate that daily moderate consumption of champagne may improve vascular performance.

Beyond the heart, champagne could benefit your brain as well.  Three glasses a week of bubbly could help prevent brain disorders, including dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Study's have found that certain black grape varieties used in champagne can aid memory because of a compound called phenolic acid.  Researchers recommend that people drink two to three glasses of champagne a week, starting after the age of 40 to help stave off dementia.

  Of course, all of these benefits come with a catch.  First, though alcohol consumption can have some benefits, all of these studies indicate moderate consumption – not heavy consumption.  In many cases, drinking too much can not only counteract the benefits one would receive, but it may, in fact, make things worse in the long run.
