Healthy Diet Step 1: Remove Alcohol?
Looking at websites related to organic and Natural food, I am always amazed how they ignore the damage that alcohol causes and never seem to criticize it. If one wishes to have a healthy diet surely the removal of alcohol is the first step, as it is such a dangerous drug, probably more than many of the trace carcinogens present in other foods?Dr Graeme Woodfield, Auckland, New Zealand.

I would like to see evidence that red wine in moderation is worse than many trace carcinogens present in other foods, or can even be considered a "dangerous drug".
Red wine in recent decades has become one of the most studied and researched alcoholic beverages on the planet - and in moderation the demonstrated health benefits appear to outweigh the negative factors of alcohol intake.
