No kidding? Where is the link to the first study, and how do you find it? I am computer-challenged, lol.
I would think, though, that using only 107 test subjects hardly substantiates anything, while the study in the link I provided used 8000 test subjects.
I dunno, though.
In the first link there are the statements "Beer does less damage than wine according to a study in Alcohol and Alcoholism" and "Researchers found that the hippocampus-the part of the brain that stores the memories-was 10% smaller in beer drinkers than those that sticks to wine." Huh???
Anyway, an interesting thread.
