CRANBERRY juice could be as effective as red wine in helping to prevent heart disease, scientists said yesterday.
A glass a day can stop arteries clogging up and boost circulation.
The juice works by boosting the body's supply of so-called good cholesterol, which is known as HDL.
In turn, it counters bad - or LDL - cholesterol.
The findings will be welcomed by teetotallers who do not drink red wine.
