OK, so that means I have to drink two glasses of red wine for every beer, just to stay even. I can live with that.

Does anyone else find it a little odd that the article is printed in French?

consumed beer each month presented twice more risks to be touched than those which drank any never or very seldom.

That would be Irish Alzheimers. We never forget our grudges:)

The interesting thing about this is that it must be something in the wine, and the beer, other than the alcohol, which determines these effects. Find out what it is, and avoid the, presumably, bad stuff in beer, and take supplements of the, presuably, good stuff in wine. Although a small amount of ethanol seems to be good for you also.

[sigh]

Once again worthless junk offered up as science via the abuse of statistics.

It could just as easily be said "Living in Sweden causes a 4.8% chance of going insane."

There is a huge difference between associative elements (things are are related) and elements that are cause. This smells of a researcher looking to drum up support for more grant money.

Beer causes insanity?

Beer goggles pretty much proves that research.

This is pure garbage. I know oldsters (over 80) , some that drink Early Times whiskey every day, and some that don't drink any alcohol. It's up to the individual genes!!
