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.

Just 1 or 2. Thats good news, I was worried about 3 or 4LOL. I drink a glass of red wine a day (remember when that was good for you?) I guess I'll up that to 3 glasses.
To: VA Voter
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...

It is ALWAYS about the money. Grants, published papers (which translates in to tenure, status or grants and funding) or just getting tagged/mentioned in the daily drive time liberal news radio morning spew. ALWAYS the money.

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.

I process alcohol incredibly fast. I always wonder if that is good or bad for my liver.

They have so many contradictory studies about everything that I now ignore them all.

Just a couple of years ago it was “1-2 drinks a day keep the Dr. away.”
Sick and tired of these junk scientists and quacks who leech off the taxpayer teat...
Screw ‘em...gonna keep on having a couple of fingers worth of JD whenever I choose...
One can either choose to exist or live...I choose to live.

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.

After 12 weeks without a beer [recuperating from an accident] I am looking forward to more than several Brewskis when the Cast Comes off. The connumdrum is, what brew would taste best? I am leaning towards a hoppy English ale or a heavier German Lager or Pilsner, any suggestions? I am not going to ruin my palate with a watered down American version as I did in the past..
