Some researchers at the University of Washington found that alcohol is truly awful for us . . . and killing millions of people a year.
They found the chemicals in alcohol . . . and the effects they have on us . . . are deadlier than we ever realized. And if you've heard that having a glass of wine a day is healthy . . . yeah, the downside outweighs the potential benefits.
So the researchers say there's really NO healthy amount of alcohol you can drink . . . and the only way to get away from its EVIL effects is to cut yourself off completely.
THAT BEING SAID . . . an evolutionary psychologist in England just came out with a very different take: Booze is the KEY to the survival of the human race.
He says that throughout human history, alcohol has been the key to our SOCIAL LIVES . . . it lowers inhibitions, it's fun, it helps people bond. And our social abilities are a big part of why we evolved and became the most advanced species.
So in conclusion, keep drinking for the sake of humanity . . . even if that makes you a martyr.
