Default Overwhelming Evidence

Wine Adds Five Years to Life, More Than Beer, Dutch Study Finds
Eva von Schaper

Half a glass of wine a day may add five years to your life, a new study suggests. Drink beer, and you’ll live 2 1/2 years longer.

Dutch researchers followed 1,373 men for more than four decades, noting their eating and drinking habits.

Light alcohol intake was linked to lower cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and overall mortality in the study.
