The next time you'll are considering a cocktail, we suggest that you'll think of this read before giving in your order. Vodka was made for more than just martinis and cocktails, it was actually invented as a source of medicine. Yes, show that to your doctors now! The colourless, odourless drink has a number of health benefits and we're going to take you through them.

Vodka is a natural disinfectant, antitoxin and antiseptic. It can be used to treat toothaches, clean wounds and clean your house. Another reason why you'll should drink up is because like most of you'll already know, it's a great stress reliever too. You may have heard that red wine is a natural relaxer, but it's nothing compared to vodka, which has been scientifically proven to help relieve stress.

It is heart-healthy too! Vodka can increase blood-flow and circulation in your body which can prevent clots, strokes and other heart diseases. All you skin-care enthusiasts might want to know that it is can also be a skin-care product. Vodka acts as a natural astringent or toner and due to its disinfectant properties, can help clean your pores like gentler washes just can't. (Just be sure to dilute it with equal parts water first). Vodka even contributes to oral hygiene. Swishing a shot of it can help combat bad breath. And lastly, it reduces the risk of you getting diabetes. Unlike beer or wine, a shot of vodka can actually reduce blood sugar levels.

Now, to this, we say, drink up!
