[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This article is very vague as to what it is we know and what we don't know. For example is there any known harm from one drink per week? How do the effects of alcohol compare to the effects of highly processed foods? At the bottom they say nobody's saying you shouldn't drink at all but clearly that is the message the headline is conveying. It's very alarmist with no context. We eat, drink and do things that have proven harms all the time, but I feel like we still have these prohibition-era attitudes that put alcohol in a different category in terms of how it is messaged.[/quote]

Yes, I would like to see the risk of 1 glass of wine as compared to 1 bag of potato chips or a bowl of ice cream. [/quote]

Or a liter of soda.[/quote]

Or a daily Starbucks[/quote]

DP - if you mean just coffee itself, that’s not harmful (within reason).  Daily venti Frappuccino is a different story.

But yeah, all of these things.  Or the risk of never exercising, ever.  Or only getting four hours of sleep a night.[/quote]
