The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
i probably consume four or five glasses of wine a week right now matt whereas historically it would have been four or five glasses a month and i would say during the height of sort of my anxiety around some of the aspects of covid i was probably drinking a glass to sometimes two every single night
look I probably have anywhere from to four drinks a week but when I'm drinking those four drinks across two or three days it's not going through my mind that this is healthy it's like yeah this is a honic pleasure that's not good for me but it's enjoyable it's enjoy
I'm probably drinking four, five, even six drinks a week. But I really try to limit it to less than that.
