I always knew there was a good reason as to why I drink so much.

 

[feller469]

I will be healthy in the morning

 

[~~whimsy~~]

This is like saying chocolate is good for you.

Moderation with everything is fine. Articles like these will have folks drinking for their "health" and ultimately forgetting all about the liver.

Meh, just be responsible, live healthy, and eat and sleep right and you will be fine.

For those drinking little - less than a shot of vodka a day for instance - the risk was reduced by 35%. And for those who drank anything from three shots to more than 11 shots each day, the risk worked out an average of 50% less.

Awesome! I'll just replace vodka with tequila, and double the dosage for 100% effectiveness

Throw in a beer or 3 for good measures, just to be sure!

Yes, they keep saying this, even though they are incorrect.

The alcohol and other things outweighs the small benefits.

So, no more alcohol for anyone. Prohibition is coming back.

I like my vodka. However, drink not out of excess and do not give in to wine

Dark chocolate is good for you, however, if you eat a pound of it every day or morning and evening and expect to remain healthy, well, that is just stupidity!

It has to be proper dark chocolate, no artificial or that crap in it.

A lot of food is healthy for people, however, moderation and limits is the key.

Yes I heard this on the news this morning, apparently heavy drink is good for the heart but may damage other vital organs ie kidneys.

 

[~~whimsy~~]

Not in excess... :hatsoff:

The liver.

Not in excess... :hatsoff:

Not at all. Strong drink is a mocker.

 

[Shadowfax 10]

I don't drink alcohol but I can't see how alcohol can good for your heart, I stick to eating stredded wheats.

 

[Shifty]

Today, perhaps.

Tomorrow, someone will release a study claiming that alcohol causes heart disease.

Yeah. Cuz it worked so well the first time.

It would have if the people who broke the law were prosecuted.

 

[skechers]

They were, Will E. As many as could have been. The problem was, prosecuting them accomplished nothing, and there were just too many folks breaking that one particular law during the time that sending them all through the legal system would have been impossible at worst, and expensive and problematic at best.

Well, then it's Bonnie and Clyde time.

When they are found start shooting. :ak47:

They weren't prosecuted correctly or harsh enough. That's a huge problem with this country.

When I can be prosecuted for enjoying a cold beer in the privacy of my own home, it's time to move.
