    Yeah, I understand the point that they're trying to make. But there are many people who don't believe in the connection. Not sure this would convince them - I have a good friend who enjoys his alcohol and claims this is all BS. But perhaps there is somebody out there that never heard it before and may think twice.

      People will defend what has a “hold on them”. I used to do it with alcohol as well as smoking. It’s amazing how we can justify pretty much anything. The fact is… we all have choices and if you are informed and you choose to drink smoke or anything else, then it’s your decision but we can’t blame anyone else for the consequences of our choices. ❤

      Exactly! But really, if alcohol has affected someone’s life in a negative way more than a few times, it’s time to stop! Some people have a high tolerance for alcohol (my brother can drink a whole case of beer and you can’t even tell) and some do not (my girlfriend drinks one glass of wine and she is falling all over and slurring)
      People just need to be aware of their behaviour while drinking and make a decision to end the cycle of abusing their bodies and relationships!

    There are many studies showing that the people with the lowest overall mortality are moderate drinkers, not non drinkers.
    That does not mean that alcohol is good for you. But the “J” shaped mortality curve is quite well known.

    • @WeAreGhuraba
      @WeAreGhuraba 2 дні тому +1

      Are you trying to say for example Muslims who mostly don't drink due to the religious beliefs have less mortality? Have you seen how much suffering due to alcohol is happening in UK? It's better not to engage than to engage at all.

      @@joebagodonuts8119 No I used basic reasoning to show how silly the so called studies are, I gave you a whole people who don't engage with alcohol whatsoever, the studies are essentially saying they have lower mortality. You have to account for genetics, exercise, diet etc. If your studies are true then that means they have less mortality by default. I mean all you've given us is the example of drinkers versus non drinkers, if you're so smart then please explain how my example fails cuz all I essentially did is ask a logical question of if such studies can be applied to a certain group. Other studies have found no significant reductions in mortality risk for moderate drinkers anyways. and studies that also show moderate drinking has been linked to increase in certain cancers.

    • @WeAreGhuraba
      @WeAreGhuraba 2 дні тому +1

      Matter of fact, a basic look shows there's lots of criticisms of those studies, one of the criticism I'm seeing people say is methodological flaws such as abstainer bias. Makes sense to me since I've seen studies show moderate drinking is associated with lower mortality anyways, complete opposite to your claim.

    • @ParadoxalDream
      @ParadoxalDream День тому

      These studies are outdated have have long been debunked. The latest science is clear on the subject, no alcohol at all is better than moderate consumption. Even the antioxidants in red wine are not enough to offset the damage done by the ethanol.
