Vitamins for Moderate Drinkers





Don't overlook the B vitamins, especially if you have an occasional glass of wine.

In a recent study, women who consumed the most vitamin B6 had a 34 percent lower risk of colon cancer than women who consumed the least B6. The benefits appeared particularly great for women who drank two or more alcoholic drinks per week. Good choices for vitamin B6 include skinless chicken and turkey, bananas, and tomato paste.

RealAge Benefit: Consuming 4 milligrams of vitamin B6 per day from food or supplements can make your RealAge as much as 1 year younger.

Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture...Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.
