A glass of red wine a day keeps the doctor away, a Harvard study has found.

Those who enjoy a tipple, but not too much, are less likely to be admitted to hospital than teetotallers.

The study looked at 21,000 men and women in Italy and found that for moderate drinkers, when mixed with a typically Mediterranean diet, a small glass of wine (125ml) a day lowered the chance of needing medical treatment compared with heavier boozers or those that abstain.

Over six years, there were 13,000 hospital admissions for those taking part, who had an average age of 56.

Those who never touched a drop were 11 per cent more likely to find themselves hospitalised than the glass-a-day club. 

Previous studies have suggested red wine, in moderation, can be good for your heart, containing compounds that lower heart disease.

But Dr Ken Mukamal, of the Harvard Medical School, said: 'We are absolutely not saying that any teetotaller should start drinking to improve his/her health.'

The study was published in the journal Addiction.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
