JAN 27, 24 .. THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION SAYS ..

There are many outstanding meetings in Hong Kong. 


On page 62 of the November 2023 issue of the AA Grapevine Magazine, I came across a reference to an extremely interesting article about alcohol that I want to share.

THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION STATES THAT ..
No level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health.

I can clearly recall many, MANY, articles stating that "some" red wine is beneficial to humans.

Although more research is needed, some studies show that red wine is good for heart health because it helps reduce the risk of plaque buildup in the arteries. Resveratrol, a polyphenol in red wine, has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and may reduce the risk of cancer by discouraging cancer cell growth.

And many other various articles that stipulate "safe levels" of alcohol consumption.

I idly wonder to myself how many of you reading this are thinking to yourself : 

"I don't care what the World Health Organization says!"

Some say that the above attitude is the "Alcoholic Personality" speaking.

Personally I like to look at, to ponder, yes study, such proclamations.
