Like smoking or vaping, the more you do it the worse it is. Drink mindfully guys.
How dangerous is alcohol, really?

It’s literally a fucking poisonous carcinogen.

The explain behind the survey data is pretty fascinating. Researchers surveyed people who don’t drink, not people who never drank.
A cohort of non-drinkers will also consist of recovering alcoholics. They needed to survey people who never consumed alcohol at all, not a group of people who weren’t currently drinking.

It’s quite flammable, so you have to be aware of that.

For anyone who didn’t want to take the time to watch the whole video, the consensus is that occasional moderate drinking is essentially fine, but there’s no amount of alcohol that is somehow “beneficial to your health” in any way.
For me personally any amount of alcohol is terrible, because if I have just one beer I’ll be irritated until I get enough additional drinks that I can get blackout drunk, which is one of the reasons I don’t drink at all anymore

Same here brother. That’s the way the drug is working on your brain. One drink makes you thirsty, until it is too late.
Also, nice coincidence with !stopdrinking@lemmy.world

That’s why I stopped drinking, it was either don’t drink or drink all the alcohol untill I pass out, there was no in between. Stopped drinking a year ago and it’s been great, every so often I have a bad or really good day and feel like one but I get over that quickly now.

I hit 3 years last September! The urge never really goes away, but it gets easier the longer you stick with it!
