Drinking Alcohol Can Be Healthy

Do not feel guilty about having that glass of wine for dinner.

New research shows drinking alcohol not only protects your heart it appears to prevent all causes of death.

Italian researchers analyzed 34 studies that looked at the effects of alcohol on men and women.

They found men who drank 2 to 4 servings of alcohol a day and women who had 2 servings experienced a health benefit and had a lower risk of
death.

However, those who drank more than that saw negative health effects.

Experts say drinking with meals is best.
