🚨 THE SCIENCE HAS CHANGED! Your deepest health belief about alcohol is being challenged. We analyze the comprehensive data from The Lancet that demolishes the old "J-Curve" myth and confirms that zero alcohol consumption minimizes health risk.
We explore the difficult question: Is the minor risk from an occasional "skol" worth the major, validated benefit of social inclusion and connection? This is the final, nuanced guide to making your informed choice.
I explain: Why I personally stopped almost all drinking after seeing this data.
