Abstract in brief
Modest alcohol consumption may have social benefits that promote health and social bonding, rather than being solely for pleasure.
Social drinkers tend to have more friends and feel more connected and trusting within their community.
Alcohol can trigger the brain's endorphin system, which helps strengthen social bonds, similar to activities like laughter, singing, and dancing.]

@SergeAhmed Interesting. It's clear that drugs have benefits - people don't use them for their harm. It's weird/interesting how little discussion there is on this fact, especially with respect to alcohol. I'm very interested in the history of this all. You know this:

@OElgvin @dagfinnhessenp Forskning finner plausible positive effekter av (moderat) konsum på samfunnsnivå, med plausible mekanismer: https://t.co/XPLSYGQoRG All tilgjengelig statistikk gir ellers *svært* lave alkohol-tall i hele Midtøsten og i Pakistan – selv om en viss drikkekultur eksisterer.
@SahilBloom @hubermanlab So a study in the UK basically backs social drinking but in moderation.
“increasing social bonding, reducing social anxiety, and improving language fluency etc. “

Moderate consumption of beer is linked with improved social interaction. People who drink beer in local pubs engage in conversation which boosts their social well-being. Strong social networks are the primary buffers against physical and mental illnesses.

We all know this already but it's actually a scientific fact that visiting your local makes you happier!
