    Considering that alcohol is a drug with severe side effects, I’d be rather surprised if it was part of the “statistically small or not significant results” group. Do you have a paper that specifically discusses the research on alcohol?

      I haven’t looked into it. But if there was a stronger signal then epidemiology it would have been stated in the first article.

      We do have causal papers between alcohol and FLD, and diabetes.

        The site is called “techexplorist”, really doesn’t strike me as the kind of publication to support their medical claims with cited studies.
