I understand that some racial groups process alcohol very slowly because of their enzymatic makeup. Maybe they are more sensitive to liver damage? Was this taken into account in the study?
To: VA Voter
Just 1 or 2. That’s good news, I was worried about 3 or 4.
To: VA Voter
So it’s back to mainlining ethanol then.

How's about we let them fight it out with the other 'scientists' who say a glass of wine or 2 a day is good for you? Or are these guys just another bunch of grant-seeking grubs trying to justify their existence [and another government grant]?
We could tell everyone that these are the guys who made the great tasting fast-food french fries go away years back...

Idiots.
Virtually every study ever done on MORTALITY shows moderate drinking reduces it.
Yes, there are downsides to your liver. But the upside to your heart is more important, in moderation.

No two people are alike so it varies. Fat vs skinny, ethnicity, etc.

Total bull crap. One drink a day would never hurt your liver near as much as it would bring benefits to your heart and blood vessels.
I belive having a shot a day or a glass of vine is essential to live long and healthy and so thinks every person I know who lived into 90 years.

Long-term pharmaceutical use is deadly.

One thing will never be known is how many people lie about their drinking and how big are those lies.

when moving from the moderate to heavy daily drinking (up to one drink/day for women; two drinks/day for men)
Huh. I never knew I was considered a heavy drinker. So what do you call someone who drinks 3-4? 5-6? 6+?
To: VA Voter
My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.

Two or three joints every night, however, makes you brighter and sharper in this New Age.
To: VA Voter
Mr. Inspectorette and I used to enjoy a couple of glasses of wine every night, up until his hemorrhagic stroke two years ago (six weeks in hospital, six more weeks in rehab). His neurosurgeon advised him to stay off of the alcohol completely.
Since he doesn't imbibe, I decided to join him. My motive is not entirely unselfish: it helps keep my weight down. Do we miss it? You bet, but it's worth it to us to not drink at all.
