For at least 6,000 years of recorded history, human beings have enjoyed alcohol. Today, it plays a pivotal role in society and even in the economy, with almost 579 million alcoholic drinks consumed each week in the UK. But with plenty of conflicting stories floating around in the media, many people are rightly mystified: is alcohol good for you, or does it harm you? There are two sides to every fence, and the same is true for alcohol.

Those in favour say that moderate alcohol consumption is good for your heart, that wine is a source of antioxidants and that many long-lived people enjoy a regular drink. Those against say that regular alcohol consumption reduces mental performance, is neurotoxic, is bad for your liver and immune system, increases your risk for cancer and reduces sexual performance.

All this, and more, is true. So the critical questions become: do the pluses outweigh the minuses, and what amount equates to maximum benefit (or minimum harm)?
