Goes on to say 'Mortality risk was 42% higher for heavy drinkers and 49% higher for abstainers than moderate drinkers.'
Moderate drinkers live longer than teatotallers
On its face I would think that a lot of moderate drinkers are people that just drink wine with a meal.
Wine has all sorts of antioxidants and has been correlated with lower levels of heart disease, cholesterol, etc.
The article makes a good point, though, that people feeling the need to declare that they 'abstain' from alcohol, might tend to be people who have had serious problems with it in the past and so actually they've drank way more long-term than the moderate drinkers

Yes, thanks. This is what i keep telling my girlfriend but it just dont seem to sink in!
Everything in moderation as they say.
I thought i might have had a slight drink problem....until i lived nextdoor to a Russian.

I always wanted to call a bar "Moderation", I like to do most things in moderation.

When I was in rehab there was nobody who did anything in moderation. There were twelve of us. Three died within a year. Probably four, actually.

If you have regard to a listing such as this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_c ... expectancy
You will note that some countries with heavy male consumption of alcohol have surprisingly long life expectancies. Not withstanding that in some countries such as the Scandinavian ones, alcohol is very heavily taxed.
Personally, I started my self-embalming from the inside out at a fairly early age.
