Even one drink a day raises the risk of cancer by 10%.A drink or two every single day is fine?
Never heard of it but just by common sense that's a lot of alcohol
Meh, I can live without alcohol. I've only ever done it sparingly during social occasions.
I love the taste of cocktails, beer, and distilled beverages, but yeah I got tired of alcohol quickly. Boring drug.
I've never drank alcohol before. I've always been curious what it'd feel like being slightly impaired and tipsy, or even full out wasted. But only for a moment. Still even if I wasn't raised in a way that made alcohol disallowed, I doubt I'd be someone who'd have much of it anyway. Kind of like how I don't smoke, or do recreational drugs. The positive aspects to my financial and physical health are really useful
But from an 'outsider' looking in, I've always wondered about the fascination with alcohol and drinking culture. It never really made much sense to me. It's weird in that during school, whle I had some Asian friends, the majority of people I hung out with were white. As soon as Uni started though, it was almost like an immediate seperation and I slowly drfited away from my white friends, and now hang out with mainly Asians. They didn't understand why I didn't want to hang out in pubs and nightclubs, and I didn't get why alcohol was necessary if we ever had to hang out or go somewhere.
It's almost like this is a forum with hundreds of different members that respond to different things.Era, you can be so irrational sometimes (as seen in the vegan threads too).
Alcohol is entrenched in society, I get it. But you can raise above tribalist habits and just get rid of it.
It is vivid how people advocate JUST DRINK WATER, BRO mentality when it comes to diet coke, but then turn around and almost scream at the idea of stopping alcohol consumptions.
Be rational.

Still not gonna stop drinking. To be honest, everything can kill you, so I will just enjoy my life.
Anyone who drank alcohol "for the health benefits" was such an obvious liar that it's almost funny.

But what about a glass of red wine, per night.
I've been meaning to start that.
That's more than twice the yearly death rate for car accidents.If that 2.8 million deaths stat is worldwide seems pretty small to me tbh.
*drinks more beer*

Yup! We were always winning heh
Drinking is going to negate your exercising efforts...I get really drunk like once every 2 months.
And drinkba couple of beers a week (a friend works on a beer factory, so we get free beers). As long as I'm exercising enough I should be cool right?
With just a couple of beers per week?
No he's talking bollocks.With just a couple of beers per week?
Im mostly worried of cardiovascular and cancer. Since I got fatty liver before I exercised
