Two Daily Drinks Linked to 1-in-25 Death Risk

If you enjoy a glass of wine or a beer most evenings, a large new study suggests that habit may carry more danger than previously assumed. Researchers found that consuming just two alcoholic drinks per day is associated with a 1 in 25 lifetime risk of dying from an alcohol-related cause. The study also detected no meaningful overall health benefits from alcohol, and the risks climb steadily as consumption goes up. This challenges the long-held belief that moderate drinking is harmless or even good for you.

Does this study change how you think about your own drinking habits?
