Bad news for a Friday: drinking is still not good for your health By Jamie Ducharme Health Correspondent I like a glass of wine on a Friday night as much as anyone, so it brings me no joy to tell you about a major new study published today. It finds that light or moderate drinking is not likely to extend your life, and people who drink lots of alcohol are at higher risk of premature death than non- or occasional drinkers.
