I am skeptical of the new studies regarding alcohol.

We shouldn't smoke or drink or eat sugar. Water and vegetables. Kill me with boredom.

Of the three, I only stopped smoking. The other ones are still part of my life, to varying extents, and no study will convince me to completely cut them out.

Nicotine on its own is relatively harmless.
Moved to vaping over ten years ago and have saved my lungs and over $NZ100,000 in tax.
Was paying more in tobacco tax than income tax.
IMO sugar is the primary cause of obesity and that has a massive negative effect on a large part of the population and the health system.
