Alcohol Might Be Good For You

It's actually the opposite. Studies since the '80s French paradox have generally attributed intrinsic health benefits to moderate ETOH consumption (like a glass of wine a day) with some forms (e.g. red wine) being more beneficial than others. The stigma associated with social drinking here is thought to be undermining a beneficial integration of alcohol with foods in the American diet.
