Scientific medical research has demonstrated that drinking alcohol in moderation is associated with better health and greater longevity than is either abstaining from alcohol or abusing it.

It is a myth that drinking alcohol kills brain cells. That myth was started by temperance activists to scare people into abstaining from all alcohol.

You get stupid. You destroy brain cells, and you don't get them back. Drink too much, you die, now, not later. Alcohol poisoning is more common than generally published. Drink for years, and you die from liver cirrhosis, among other things. Any relationships you have will suffer. And FYI, when you drink to the point you get sick, that's your body's way of getting rid of the excess poison that otherwise might kill you.
