Loads of people can have a glass of wine per night, and still look and perform awesome. And if they can do that, I have no business telling them it's detrimental to their health. For me personally, I can't do it, because within a few weeks I'd be drinking a bottle of wine instead of a glass. Daily drinking isn't something everyone can do without it becoming a negative thing. But for those that can,I say enjoy it.
