> Id be interested in a source as it is my understanding that most of this research was disinformation from the alcohol industry
it's independent scientific studies
alcohol industry doesn't need to convince people, they sell alcohol, people enjoy alcohol, it's not like cigarettes that stink and taste horribly and are bad for those around you,e specially kids.
The ability (which is common) to moderate oneself when drinking is associated with general better health (Modest drinkers were more educated, less obese, more active, less smoked, and had lower rates of hypertension, diabetes, and high triglycerides, proteinuria, high uric acid and high level of C-reactive protein when compared with regular drinkers)
So in general we should not look at the substance, but at the person.
non drinkers are usually people who are scared of losing self control.
heavy drinkers are usually people who cannot control themselves and did not chose abstinence.
But the solution is to learn moderation, since young age.
