Alcohol is responsible for deaths, injuries and unhappiness but in ‘moderation’ reduces the risk of cardiovascular death or stroke and may reduce the risk of dementia and type II diabetes.
The government seems to have given up on its promise to provide a national alcohol strategy. Perhaps we should sympathise, given that alcohol health messages are increasingly complex. Alcohol is arguably responsible for more deaths, injuries and unhappiness in under thirty year olds than anything else. But “moderate†alcohol consumption reduces the risk of cardiovascular death or stroke and may reduce the risk of dementia and type II diabetes. Oliver is Head of the School of Clinical Medical Sciences, University of Newcastle, has been treating patients with alcoholic cirrhosis for 30 years and is an enthusiastic wine amateur.
