HEALTH:
Where to draw the line studies have shown the health benefits associated with
moderate alcohol consumption. However, many physicians have been reluctant to
recommend imbibing over fears that drinking to excess carry serious risks. With
this in mind a cardiologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston undertook
a study to determine how many drinks it takes to tip the balance from health
benefit to health risk. His study of the medical history and habits of 89,299
men draws the line at one drink a day for men. Women, who generally are smaller
and metabolize alcohol more slowly that men should drink a bit less, One drink
equals 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of hard spirits.
