Reading the above study concerning an increase in longevity among a group of older adults, diagnosed with heart disease, who engaged in moderate alcohol consumption. while the Findings were that, "consumption of 7 or fewer alcoholic drinks per week was significantly associated with increased survival compared with abstinence from alcohol, after controlling for other factors," which is similar to other studies as far as defining what constitutes a 'moderate' amount of alcohol, if I read it correctly, "Consumption of 10 drinks per week was associated with the longest survival," i.e., >7 drinks/wk-- perhaps similar to definitions like, e.g., 1 drink /day for women and 2 drinks /day for men as being a moderate amount.
