Research from the University of Texas has revealed unexpected results regarding abrupt alcohol withdrawal. Over 20 years, a team of scientists studied the effects of completely stopping alcohol consumption on the health of individuals aged 55-65.
The study involved 1,800 participants, divided into three groups: alcoholics, moderate drinkers, and abstainers.
The results were shocking: abstainers had the shortest life expectancy, with 69% not living to 65. In comparison, 60% of alcoholics did not reach this age, which was still better than abstainers.
The best results were observed among moderate drinkers, with only 40% failing to reach 65.
Researchers emphasize that abrupt alcohol withdrawal can be fatal. However, this does not mean that excessive drinking is advisable. Balance and moderation remain key factors for maintaining health.
