Here’s something you may or may not like to hear. New research says moderate drinking may lengthen life, but heavy drinking raises the risk of death. Moderate drinking is defined as two to four drinks a day for men; one to two drinks for women. Heavy drinking is anything beyond that. So the message is heavy drinkers should cut their consumption, but people who already consume low to moderate amounts of alcohol should continue, atleast that’s what the Italian researchers who conducted the study say.
It’s not too early to start thinking about next year’s St. John’s Life Fair. St. John’s Life Fair is set for Saturday, March 29th at the Leggett & Platt Athletic Center on the campus of MSSU. We’ll have all the same free screenings and activities for the public, plus a featured guest speaker. For more information about St. John’s Annual Life Fair, call St. John’s Referral One at 625-2000 or log onto stj.com.
