Is drinking a little beer considered good for health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The safe drinking limit in men ages 21-59 is no more than 2 standard drinks per day (or 2 12-oz. bottle of beers), and in women (and men over 60) no more than 1 standard drink per day. Also never more than 3 drinks on one occasion for women, or 4 drinks for men, and no more than 7 standard drinks/week in women and men over 60, and 14 drinks/week in younger men. This increases good cholesterol-HDL
