why not you can drink in moderation.

[fredricklobo in reply to kuckoo]

EVEN THIS IS NOT GOOD. BETTER AVOID COMPLETELY. ALCOHOL IS NOT A SOCIAL DRINK, BUT IT IS A SOCIAL EVIL. IT NOT ONLY SPOILS YOU, IT ALSO SPOILS YOUR FAMILY. WHY SHOULD YOU BE SELFISH, SEEKING YOUR OWN PLEASURE?

THIS IS WRONG! AVOID ALCOHOL COMPLETLY.

Moderate drinking only two times a week is OK so long you limit your intake to two small pegs of 30 ml a day. However please note that alcohol contains plain calories without any nutrients and snacks taken with drinks further add to to the calories. Therefore you have to balance total calorie intake. No binging on drinks and snacks must be done.

I am a diabetic for 15 years, was having two pegs daily for years. Now given up daily quota but occasionally.

It is the will, anyone can stop, as long as one is a slave of what we do and say. I cant do that and this all nonsense. Live a life King size as per individual size, wish and will, then the world will be a wonderful place to live.

SINCE YOU ARE A DIABETIC, WHY DON'T YOU STOP COMPLETELY. BELIEVE ME, WILL ONLY HELP YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

thank u.u r right .

[fredricklobo]

ALCOHOL ANY QUANTITY, ANYTIME, IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH. OUR BODY NEEDS A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF ALCOHOL WHICH IS ALREADY THERE IN THE FOOD WE TAKE. BETTER AVOID ALCOHOL BECAUSE IT DOES'NT DO ANY GOOD. SOME DOCTORS ADVISE TAKING ONE OR TWO PEGS DOES'NT DO ANY HARM. THIS ONLY ENCOURAGES AN INDIVIDUAL TO GO IN FOR ALCOHOL. MY VERSION IS ALCOHOL IS EVIL, AND IT DEEDS TO EVIL DEEDS.

[fredricklobo]

AVOID ALCOHOL COMPLETELY.

i would like to share my observation in the case of my uncle who was a diabetic patient for more than 45 years. He use to take 90 ml of whishky every day for almost 45 years and died recently at the age of 84 years due to hip injury. He use to practice Yoga every day.
