Benefits of Drinking

Hi again blog fans, as a result of our blog being strongly focused on the negative impacts of drinking and the scary realities behind excessive alcohol consumption i decided to do some research on the benefits of drinking. Turns out there is some surprising information on the net if you know where to look. Here is my difference in opinion to our previously portrayed outlook on the subject.

Follow the link at the bottom if you wish to learn more :)

Over the last five years, the health benefits of moderate drinking have been widely celebrated in the headlines. To those who think everything enjoyable must be bad for you, this news might seem like a dream come true.

Of course, there are many caveats - and these studies don't indicate that teetotalers should take up drinking or that infrequent drinkers should start drinking more. The operative word here is drinking in moderation.

Studies show, for example, that health benefits only come with moderate drinking and are greatest for older men. And even moderate drinking is not recommended for women who are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, or for people who are under 21.

The strongest medical evidence exists for the link between moderate drinking and a reduced risk of heart disease.
