This is an amazingly good article! This is something I am sharing with my friends so they are aware of the effects of this study. This definitely makes me rethink alcohol consumption. I might have missed it when I read it, but is there any testing done for people who have occasional drinks (between 1-3 drinks a week)? What I saw above looked to be very heavy drinkers. I ask because there are also studies saying small amounts of wine help digestion, etc.. thanks again!

They weren't testing moderate consumption (their non-drinker category could have contained some moderate to low amounts of drinking), rather really heavy consumption.
Nothing here indicated that one should stop drinking alcohol entirely, but it does look like it's evidence that moderation us a good idea (and we all already knew that!). So drinking that glass of wine every day still won't be an issue, there the good outweighs the bad.
