Nightly glass of wine may not be as harmless as many people think, study suggests
A study challenges the notion that daily alcohol consumption is harmless, suggesting that the safest amount is none. Researchers found that even low levels of alcohol use increase health risks, such as liver disease, stroke, and cancer, and recommend limiting intake to one drink per day if people choose to drink. The study, analyzing alcohol-related injuries and health data, contradicts older guidelines that allowed up to two daily drinks for men.
