Meanwhile, yet another study has found health benefits from moderate consumption of alcohol.
Using data from the Netherlands Cohort Study, researchers found the “highest probability of reaching 90 was found in those consuming 5 to less than 15 grams a day alcohol.”
Wine intake was positively associated with longevity in women, but liquor was positively associated with longevity in men and inversely in women.
At the same time, the data showed binge drinking was associated with reduced lifespans and should be avoided.
