Zero tolerance: no safe level of alcohol, study says
From the article. Think I’ll go ahead and take my chances with continuing to drink. Only ups your chance of health problems by 4 out of 100,000 people:
“Compared to abstinence, imbibing one "standard drink" -- 10 grammes of alcohol, equivalent to a small beer, glass of wine or shot of spirits -- per day, for example, ups the odds of developing at least one of two dozen health problems by about half-a-percent, the researchers reported.
Looked at one way, that seems like a small increment: 914 out of 100,000 teetotallers will encounter those problems, compared to 918 people who imbibe seven times per week.”
