I am hardly being judgemental. I do believe that putting false information out in public as if it were "FACTS" needs to be rebutted at every turn.
Your posts are putting forth a proposition that Moderate Alcohol Use is Healthy.
Nothing could be further from the Truth.
But your statement is left in a vacuum.
You have not defined Moderate.
And are you saying that Moderate Drinking is Healthier than not drinking at all?
Nope. You compare it to riding a bicycle. Apples to oranges.
I can whip up a laundry list of "scientific studies" that suit my point of view if I seek out those published by the counter-press.
The counter-press is journals claiming legitimacy, but really existing as outlets for those interested in muddying the waters of reality and truth, to protect special interests. And there is no shortage of middling scientists accepting grants from special interests to conduct SI devised studies supporting their positions.
Unfortunately, I think you are pushing the wrong wheelbarrow uphill.
