According to research moderate drinking of alcohol is beneficial to health of older men. However we are not encourage to start drinking or drink frequently if we are not drinkers, because too much consumption of alcohol tend to compromise our body organs such as kidney,brain and liver. We must drink in moderation, meaning 1 drink a day for women and 2 drink a day for men. Personally I drink occasionally and that was only once or twice a year. I don't want to drink a lot and frequently for health reason and I don't want have bulge stomach just like what I have observed as a characteristics of huge drinkers. When I am with friends who encourage me to drink I just say I can only tolerate a little amount. How about you? Are you a huge alcohol drinkers? How often do you drink?

Nope. I only drank once. And it was fun. I was with my friends in another city because of having a duty in a hospital there. It was fun actually. I miss doing it again. I am not allowed to drink here at home.

I don't drink a lot. I only drink when there are special occasions like birthdays, parties or gatherings. I don't make drinking as a hobby or drinking in a regular basis because like you said, it is real that it is bad for the mind and body.

I used to drink a lot. But I quit drinking 7 years ago. I drink occasionally but its always just one bottle. It became an addiction before so I made that decision to quit. And I don't regret doing so.

No, I just do not like the taste of it, and I also can't handle it very well.
