| Another reason to celebrate because drinking alcohol increases social life |
Another reason to celebrate by drinking alcohol beverages because a new study suggested that those who drink moderately can enjoy life a little longer as compare to their counterparts.
We are grown up being taught that alcohol must be avoided because of what our parents told its bad effect when over consumed (Though they drink also) and it might cause dependency to it.
More studies and even experts said that this our parents' claim bust be true.
Participant in Alcoholics Anonymous might prove it so because of what they are struggling to fight for just to overcome their addiction to alcohol.
But a new study found out that alcohol drinkers have advantage to celebrate more years than those who stay dry.
Cheers! Let's Drink More Alcohol
A study led by Psychologist Charles Holahan of the University of Texas at Austin, looked at individuals aging 55 and 65 for 20 years to study the effects of alcohol to them. Of that 1,824 participants, 41% of the moderate drinkers (who drink one to three per day) and heavy drinkers had 60% mortality rate died compared to 69% of nondrinkers.Despite the potential danger it imposes to alcohol abuse such as liver cirrhosis and cancers, not to forget the possible dependency to it, accident and poor judgment associated to heavy drinking, the study proved that those who soak with alcohol are less likely to die as compare to those who do not drink.
One good explanation to it is that alcohol can be a good medium in social life that it might act as lubricant for greater and happier social networks which are essential for keeping the mental and health status of an individual.
Nondrinkers are most likely isolate themselves that shows depression.
So whatever this study might lead us, though alcohol shows some benefits to our health, still being responsible drinker keeps us from danger than pouring drink with out control.
Because in the end, what matters most is the social benefits of having friends while having drinks, and of course for those who never want to try alcohol, then find good friends to talk to and you might be sharing lemonade instead, and you simply become the real winner.
