All studies regarding people of European ancestry indicate that drinking is good for you, up to 21 drinks per week for your average man. After 28 drinks per week you start incurring risk of associated health problems.

I say European people as, for example, Asian people produce a lot less of the enzyme needed to deal with alcohol (my Chinese friend turns red as a lobster), and perhaps there are differences in other ethnic groups as well. So don't drink regularly if you are non-european ancestry unless you check the research, if there is any.

The brain regenerates and the level of alcohol Will only be high enough to kill brains cells in binge drinking.

Must keep in mind that there is decided bias in science as well as the media with respect to what discoveries they will report or discredit.

So cheers!

So.....You're saying my weekly habit of 28 beers in a single night ain't so good?
