Alcohol abuse can have negative long term effects on your body and it has been linked to many illnesses. That's why drinking in moderation is important. The liver can break down about one drink or unit of alcohol an hour, and if you drink in moderation your liver will be able to metabolize the alcohol with no problem. Drinking alcohol in moderation is associated with better health and living longer. A major benefit of drinking moderately is that it dramatically reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, the major cause of death in Western countries. However, it also reduces the risk of type 2 Diabetes and other serious diseases.

Drinking alcohol (beer, wine and liquor) regularly and in moderation improves cardiovascular health and increases longevity in many ways. For example, alcohol improves blood lipid profile. It increases HDL ("good") cholesterol, decreases LDL ("bad") cholesterol, and improves cholesterol (both HDL and LDL) particle size. Alcohol decreases thrombosis (blood clotting). It reduces platelet aggregation, reduces fibrinogen (a blood clotter), and increases fibrinolysis (the process by which clots dissolve). Alcohol also reduces coronary artery spasm in response to increases coronary blood flow, and reduces blood pressure. (From "Alcohol: Problems and Solutions" website.)
