First of two major reports on alcohol finds moderate drinking tied to lower mortality
A major report on alcohol's effects contradicts recent studies in finding that moderate drinkers had lower mortality.
The review, which contradicts some recent studies, will be used to craft the 2025 dietary guidelines

Two drinks per day is considered moderate? I call it alcoholism.
But let's all destroy our brains with one of the worst drugs available, just because a review said it could make us live a little longer, after all it's not like alcohol is responsible for the most deadly avoidable cause of death
I CaLl iT AlCoHoLiSm. What are you in 5th grade in 1994 at a dare presentation? Grow up and leave adults alone.
14 drinks a week is a lot, but alcohol is so normalized in nearly every culture that people respond like you.
For some people 1 drink is to much and in some cultures drinking alcohol will get you prison time, what is your point? What would be worse for someone's health 14 fucking giant Cokes a week or a beer with lunch and a glass of wine with dinner?
Bets on the latter. Your liver (among other things) does not like alcohol.
If only you knew a nutrition specialist or could ring up a doctor. Guess you can just keep believing in Santa Claus and your feels.
You seem pretty irritable. Perhaps you're going through withdrawl?
I'm just tired of you mommas boys trying to child proof the world. Hey don't want your life choices being regulated maybe be tolerate of other adults and their decisions.
Most adults act like children.
that is news to me
Who cares acting like a child is great having an imagination, hope, playing and learning. Fuck being a soulless corporate cog just gray and pathetic.
When a drug is used in more than a daily frequency,I tend to call it an addiction, yes.
Your alcoholism doesn't change that.
If I eat ice cream every day am I addicted?
Good chance you're addicted to the sugar, yes.
Your right I'm just gonna live in a box and stare at screens real life is too dangerous, the thought of having fun is scary and should be banned for everyone because I have a problem with controlling my behavior. /S
Do you use your phone once a day?
What are you, an addict?
Guilty as charged but I'm an adult if I wanna doom scroll and not eat I don't wanna hear any crying.
Yes
If ice cream destroys your health and causes risks for you and others, yes, I don't think I'd call it anything else.
Name something that won't eventually kill you.
So water is a toxic drug that causes most car accidents?
Stop the bullshit defense, if you're unable to live without alcohol just accept it and move on, don't start making such a sad argument.
Dude who the fuck mentioned anything about drinking and driving? Do you not have trains and ride share services? Also 2 fucking drinks doesn't make you a drunk driver. Cold medicine is just as dangerous. Quit your pathetic bullshit argument about how your drunk uncle molested you and so you have to control everyone else around you.
Alcohol serves zero purpose and has a lot of bad side effects.
Cold medicine has a use.
And no one mentioned drinking and driving but not mentioning it won't make people stop driving drunk. Alcohol is not dissociable from drunk driving because alcohol leads to dangerous behaviours, it's one of its side effects.
And trying to do a weird personal attack about child abuse (you think that saying that a kid being abused is a stupid person? Creepy stance dude) just shows that you have no argument and are just getting angry about your alcoholism being called out. Seek help at this point.
When a drug is used in more than a daily frequency,I tend to call it an addiction, yes.
yes and that is why drinking 1 coffee a day is a drug addiction.
You can be against it, and cry about it online, but It's not alcoholism.
TIL a glass a wine with your meal is alcoholism
What a fucking weirdo.
Replace it with "a cigarette or two"
Ok weirdo
Well that's a sad defense of alcoholism.
Having one drink with a meal is the weirdest definition of alcoholism, weirdo guy.
Wait, people actually disagree with this?
