A member asked:

How many glasses of wine should be consumed each week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You decide: Don't abuse it, don't allow it to affect your behavior, and remember that the supposed health benefits (if they are real) aren't spectacular and shouldn't be a lifestyle consideration. Drink or not, as you wish.
