The weird way red wine fights cavities

Researchers grew cultures of the types of bacteria responsible for dental diseases, and then dipped them into different liquids, including red wine, red wine without alcohol, red wine spiked with grape seed extract, and water with 12 percent ethanol. Red wine with or without alcohol and wine with grape seed extract worked best at getting rid of the bacteria. (Analyzing mouth bacteria could lead to earlier diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and treatment.)
