Abstract in brief

  • Moderate consumption of fermented beverages like wine and beer has been linked to a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers, mainly due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Excessive or binge drinking, on the other hand, increases the risk of morbidity, mortality, and accidents, highlighting the importance of moderation.
  • The health benefits are thought to come from both alcohol (ethanol) and nonalcoholic components like polyphenols, with wine generally showing stronger effects because of its higher phenolic content.
