A few beers likely won’t negate an otherwise healthy lifestyle

Adam’s Journal

Here’s a question from a reader:

About 15 years ago at my yearly check-up, my physician asked if I drink alcohol. When I replied that I enjoyed a beer or two, he said that one or two beers a day (but not more) had real health benefits. I was thrilled!

Then, last summer, I heard that new studies suggest no amount of alcohol is beneficial. (So my mother was right?)

I really like those beers, especially on days in which I put in a vigorous workout and feel virtuous. Are one or two beers a few times a week undoing all my other efforts to be healthy?
