A Ground Truth Discussion on Alcohol Intake
Eric Topol Vivek Murthy
While we’ve largely moved on from the French paradox myth of red wine’s protection from heart disease, there is still considerable controversy as to what level of alcohol intake is safe, potentially beneficial, or harmful. In this edition, Eric Topol will take you through three recent reports, how they converge and differ, and then we’ll turn to his recent conversation with Vivek Murthy, who issued the Surgeon General report just before leaving that office in January.
