Are there any health benefits to moderate drinking? |
|
Lots of people associate drinking with relaxation, socialising and having a good time. And if you're an adult in good health and with a good diet, drinking within the sensible drinking guidelines probably won't harm you.
Many experts now agree that light drinking - one or two units a day - can also have certain health benefits. There's evidence that drinking at that level may help with your cholesterol and may help reduce development of coronary heart disease in men over 40 and in post-menopausal women.
