Nobody is saying alcohol isn’t bad for you.
The BS is where someone upthread quoted something that a single drink takes 6 months off your life.
This simply doesn’t make sense. Otherwise, non drinkers would be living decades, even hundreds of years longer than drinkers.
Sounds like a misquoted/misremembered statistic to me.
