Forget treadmills, long walks and calorie-restricted diets, a daily tipple and gardening are the keys to a long and healthy life, reveals an Australian research.

"We found one alcoholic drink per day could cut the risk of dementia by 34 per cent. So, a drink a day can keep dementia away," the Courier Mail quoted the expert, as saying.
Fellow researcher Professor John McCallum of Victoria University in Melbourne said that pottering in the garden is very protective as it cuts the risk of dementia by 36 per cent.
