Comments by "Mike" (@alphacentauri8083) on "There's no safe amount of alcohol, study says" video.
But the consensus among scientists when it comes to toxicology is that the quantity is more important than the actual substance (LD50). Some compounds do have a bio cumulative effect in the long run, but the quantity ingested over a short or long time span is more important. Water is supposed to be healthy for you, right? Drink four gallons of water in an hour an you'll drop dead from hyponatremia. Have the occasional beer or glass of wine, or abstain and break your neck while falling from a step ladder changing a light bulb. People who are hyper vigilant about their diet in an effort to delay death tend to be neurotic and unpleasant to be around.

This was hilarious because the host is obviously clueless regarding the methodologies behind specific studies, j shape curves, chronic vs acute effects, etc. She was trying to dumb things down whilst the guest was focused on a "deep dive" into the results of the study.

@Artman1 In large quantities......absolutely! But people who constantly kvetch and obsess over what they should or should not ingest are the worst of the bunch.
