Alcohol in moderation 'can help prevent heart disease'

Dowly doesn't need scientists to tell him alcohol is good, he can speak from experience!

Indeed.

A lot of stuff usually considered bad for you can be good in moderation.

Alcohol, Dark Chocolate, Marijuana(If not smoked), Masturbation, etc etc.

Depends how you define moderation.

Yeah. It's the moderation part he has a hard time with.

Everyone has a different idea on moderation!

A sober mind is a terrible thing.

Anything that can reduce tension or stress will be good for the heart. Just as simple as that.

All these studies are boll*cks!

I saw one that said that one drop of alcohol was bad for you. Red wine good no bad no good back to bad and so on. Only here in the UK we had two reports that came out on red meat, the one on Saturday said it was good for you and eat what you want. Then on Sunday another study said eating red meat was bad for you and you run the risk of bowel cancer.

All this comes down to is confuse people or get them angry while these people who make these reports make a bucket of money.

I say this, up yours.

Red Wine is good for the heart.

But I think the biggest killer for the heart is worry. My father drank red wine, with his meals, use to cut the fat of meat before cooking it, if he wasn't eating meat he was eating fish, never smoked cigarettes, drank in moderation and was fit as a fiddle ( not overweight ). But he was a worrier use to worry about everything, the cows, if it didn't rain during summer he worried the cows would starve cause of no grass, worry worry worry. In his 60's he had 3 heart attacks in a 3yr period survived them all only to die in his 70s in his sleep. But doctors asked him if he was a smoker as his heart condition was that of a long term smoker.

Don't worry be happy. Your live longer
