Quitting drinking's easy. I've already done it 17 times.

We all die of something. Enjoy your life, drink moderately, and stop worrying about everything. Stress kills.

The point is to not drink excessively

@audioartisan Ай бұрын

I haven't had a drink of anything alcoholic since March 2020. Don't even have the desire to drink again.

As for lung cancer, think about how many of our parents smoked when we were growing up. My mom smoked while pregnant with me, and both my parents smoked my entire childhood in the house and car. It should be illegal to smoke around anyone under 18. This puts people at risk for lung cancer just like childhood sunburns increase risk of skin cancer.

If anyone launched a product as dangerous as cigarettes on the American market today, the FDA would shut it down. Ban tobacco.

It's sad that this is considered a NEW research finding...

Yeah, it doesn't take a genius.

My Uncles heart doctor told him for years to limit his drinking to 2 drinks per day, so he just kept using bigger glasses. He’s dead now

Oh whoa!

@learningvideosbynikhil8308 Ай бұрын

Wait so he would have that amount but in a bigger glass basically?

Why would I want to live past 65? All of the old people in my life spend a majority of their time complaining, going to some sort of medical appointment, getting knee and hip surgeries. I have no desire to get old so drink and be merry!

Exactly!

@beyondfossil Ай бұрын

It's also the issue of "health span" that may be more important than "life span". Sure, you could die at 65 but the years 55 to 64 could be very unpleasant: lying in bed, in constant pain, fear of the grim reaper stroking your soul every night with his cold clammy bony fingers.

I don't like drinking alcohol because I always become dehydrated. I've noticed some of my high school friends, who like drinking, now look ten years older than me in their fifties...

I cut back to about 30 beers a week.

Alcohol plays a factor but I guess it's made the main scapegoat, when the real culprit is Ultra Processed Food.

@theonlycaulfield Ай бұрын

And alcohol drinking rates have been falling for the last seven decades. Meanwhile, a number of cancers have been increasing in frequency.

@isarose3136 Ай бұрын

Yep. My own doctors told me that both parents having cancer was more likely from their DRINKING than their smoking.

@redzzon Ай бұрын

Drinking alcohol doesn’t cause cancer. Drinking alcohol doesn’t confuses cells that want to repair. The food and active life we live today causes stress and breakdown, drinking alcohol during recovery is correlation.

who can afford to have 14+ drinks a week

@robertjamesonmusic Ай бұрын

An 18 pack of beer is like 15 bucks dude

@jojothetasmaniansassmonkey8866 Ай бұрын

A handle of vodka is around 20 bucks and makes 40ish drinks. At that rate, 14 drinks is $7.

@EverElia Ай бұрын

Wooow. And news reports for decades + the people who drink kept saying “a glass of wine a day is good for you.” 🙄 And as soon as people say “everything in moderation,” that becomes extremely subjective to the listener.

@learningvideosbynikhil8308 Ай бұрын

Yeah I didn’t feel so good when Dr.gounder said that! I mean for smoking 🚬 it’s a carcinogen but we don’t say smoke in moderation!

Doesn't this show that cancer is a metabolic disease and not a genetic disease?

@RidingwithStymie Ай бұрын

Cancer has never been classified as an inherited disease. So, yes, you are correct.

You’re exactly right! I mean you can have family members who have had it but you can offset it by lifestyle!

Do people drink because they’re happy no. I am a disabled veteran potentially changing PTSD. Your life has to be better without the vice to not do it. What are you doing to make their lives better. Nothing.

Look into cannabis instead of alcohol and believe it or not magic mushroom is a great stress reliever. But remember mushroom is a two day drug because you do doo doo the next day
