:cheers:
Moderate alcohol consumption may lead to reduced risk of heart disease (http://www.statcan.ca/Daily/English/021003/d021003a.htm).

Alcohol could make you smarter. (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2004/08/01/nalco01.xml&sSheet=/portal/2004/08/01/ixportal.html)


...but it might not help at all. (http://alcoholism.about.com/library/blhealth01.htm)

Make your own decisions.

Note that no study shows that heavy drinking is healthy. And whatever you do, don't drive drunk. :nono:

Welcome to 3 years ago. :)


Yes we've studied this extensively in my many nutrition classes. In *moderation* it is shown to be beneficial but that is mainly due to the antioxidants in the red grapes in wine. Just eat grapes and get the fiber along with other minerals. Then again, thats not as fun.

We had a great drinking idea today! You know how you do like, walkathons. You get people to pledge like a dollar for every mile you walk. We're gonna do it with beer! Our alumni will pledge a certain amount of money for every beer we can drink. We're gonna be rich and drunk!!

You were drunk when you thought that up, right? That's a dangerously stupid idea.

Well, yeah. It's still a good idea. We aren't dumb enough to drink ourselves to death. It'll be just like any other weekend but we'll get some cash.
