I've read that alcohol stops being healthy after one glass of wine per day. That's not my definition of "boozing."

I read a study that found that heavy drinkers actually lived longer than non-drinkers. Basically the glass of wine a day people lived the longest, but then the researchers were surprised to find that the heavy drinkers came in second, and the non-drinkers died the earliest. Weird!  ???

I hope you know that the paid to posting does not mean you have to START 30 POSTS yourself each month. 

All I see are a bunch of new topics made by you today!   ??? ??? ???

You still get paid by replying to posts, like I am doing here.  Just as long as it is helpful, nice, ect.  Not spamming, rude, or crap...sorry, I couldn't think of another way to say it!  LOL

Studies show that drinking moderate amounts of wine regularly can decrease your risk of developing Alzheimers Disease.

I was thinking the same exact thing. Plus every topic this person started should be in the off topic thread. I don't know what booze has to do with Fusion Cash suggestions.  :dontknow:  I really hope the people who do this don't get the $3 forum bonus. It will make me pretty angry if they do. I saw a person the other day who just started 30 new topics and that was it. Obviously, they don't get the point of what the bonus is for.

Google My Username For Fusion Cash Help!

@lightningclix......

Guess she (he?) will figure it out when they don't get their bonus. Would probably help if they read the rules!!

Really? Didn't know heavy drinkers lived longer than non drinkers. Is it the alcohol thats behind it?

That's what this study found, anyway. The study pointed out that a lot of people who don't drink at all are often from lower socioeconomic classes because drinking is expensive, and that those people already have a lot of other stresses and reasons why they wouldn't live longer. I think it also kind of implied that even those who drink to cover up stress or issues experience less stress and depression and more fun in their lives that keeps them living longer than those who don't drink at all and are also less social people. Very interesting study!

 :icon_rr:

I think it depends on if you do drugs also. a male black nurse who drank a lot got pancreatitus. he became enzyme deficient. because some docs dont know that in pancreatitis enzyme levels are high so they think the person does not need enzymes at all. but if the body wacks out on you, and produces to much of an efficient enzyme. then taking the nutrition supplement helps. Alchol can destroy the liver and pancreus so I dont know any study that said heavy drinkers were healthier then non drinkers.

they usually smoke too so they turn into prunes. are unable to eat food so drinking is there food. These are just the things I have seen in people that drink heavy. Oh and they call people fat asses when they weight 140 just cause the drinking brings on this kind of behavoir.

I dont agree that heavy drinking would be healthy.

I do know that when babies cant drink anything and have colic that beer can be feed to them for nutrients.
only because I know a family who had to feed their baby beer and it was MD prescribed.


althought I think goats milk is better.

Don't think this is a true statement. Wine is ok but not at a "boozing" level".

The study, which was published recently in the journal Addiction, looked at more than 38,000 people in Norway. Researchers, led by Jens Christoffer Skogen of the University of Bergen in Norway, asked the participants how much they had drunk in the previous two weeks; the research team also asked them various questions to measure their levels of anxiety and depression


People in the top fifth percentile of drinkers had the highest odds for anxiety. But it was abstainers who were at the highest risk for depression — higher even than the heaviest of drinkers. Why?

Maybe because we abstainers are the ones that have to deal with the drunks? :dontknow:

The most powerful explanation seems to be that abstainers have fewer close friends than drinkers, even though they tend to participate more often in organized social activities. Abstainers seem to have a harder time making strong friendship bonds, perhaps because they don't have alcohol to lubricate their social interactions. After all, it's easier to reveal your worst fears and greatest hopes to a potential friend after a Negroni or two.

I think I would take into account that this study was done somewhere else and they only asked the participants how much they had drunk in the previous two weeks;
Which doesn't exactly seem like a long term study.

I would be more likely to take that instead of poisoning my body to live longer...which I'm sure isn't true; that it is real important to have close friends at least one or two. They don't seem to get that with a close friend you don't have to be drunk to reveal your worst fears and greatest hopes. And who does that with a potential friend anyway? Friendships are progressive relationships like any other ...alcohol doesn't change that.
