Description

Barry Fox. America’s Puritan forefathers left a legacy of temperance that the country has been slow to shake. But an increasingly large body of research suggests that our Puritan attitudes toward drinking might be detrimental to our health. Numerous studies demonstrate that moderate drinkers have an extra measure of protection against heart attacks & live longer. Fox examines the three decades of medical research into alcohol’s curative powers. His message is buttressed by frequent appeals to moderation, by a history of alcohol in medicine, & by a thorough review of the scientific literature. The U.S. government has now said that alcohol is a part of a healthy diet.
