Want to Live Longer? Toss Back a Few Cocktails
“People who already regularly consume low to moderate amounts of alcohol should be encouraged to continue.”
Alcohol in moderation may extend life span. Drinking a moderate amount of alcohol — up to four drinks per day in men and two drinks per day in women — reduces the risk of death from any cause by roughly 18 percent, researchers have found. Men who have more than four drinks per day and women who have more than two drinks per day not only lose the protection that alcohol affords, but they increase their risk of death, the data indicate. Article “Waiter, would you be so kind as to put my wine in a doggie bag?” Alcohol May Be Protective from Head Injury Light Drinking Helps Some Patients Survive Serious Injury: Study Fatalities drop by nearly a quarter. Siri Nilsson Alcohol is to blame in many car crashes and other accidents but a few drinks might improve your chances of surviving a serious head injury says new research, even though too many drinks makes survival less likely. Those patients who were alcohol-free -- or heavily intoxicated -- were more likely to die in the hospital than those patients with some alcohol in their blood. Article |

The Dangers Of Not Drinking THOSE who seek salvation in a bottle may have found their muse. Dr. Malcolm Lloyd, a Johns Hopkins and Dartmouth-trained physician and former pharmaceutical clinical researcher, will appear on "Good Morning America" this week to espouse the health benefits of daily drinking. "A lot of research shows that people who drink moderately flat-out live longer than those who don't," Lloyd tells Page Six. "From the prevention of the common cold to the prevention of the onset of Alzheimer's to preventing certain types of cancer, regular drinking can be very beneficial." Whereas most research has focused on wine, he says spirits can provide the same boon. Lloyd notes that "moderation" means one to two drinks a day for women and one to three drinks a day for men, and, "the positive effects start going in the other direction" once those numbers are exceeded. http://www.nypost.com/seven/03102009...ing_158799.htm |
