Alcohol's health benefits doubted
Any heart gains from drinking alcohol in moderation are likely outweighed by the harm, say researchers.
The findings in The Lancet suggest that drinking a glass or two of wine a day may not be such a good idea.
Although past research suggests some heart benefits, the New Zealand team says the studies were flawed.
Indeed, there is more evidence that heavier drinking provides the most heart protection - alcoholics have relatively 'clean' arteries - they say.

Now that is what I call bad news!
