    Source: Alcohol drinking patterns and risk of diabetes: a cohort study of 70,551 men and women from the general Danish population | SpringerLink

    During follow-up, 859 men and 887 women developed diabetes. The lowest risk of diabetes was observed at 14 drinks/week in men (HR 0.57 [95% CI 0.47, 0.70]) and at 9 drinks/week in women (HR 0.42 [95% CI 0.35, 0.51]), relative to no alcohol intake. Compared with current alcohol consumers consuming <1 day/week, consumption of alcohol on 3–4 days weekly was associated with significantly lower risk for diabetes in men (HR 0.73 [95% CI 0.59, 0.94]) and women (HR 0.68 [95% CI 0.53, 0.88]) after adjusting for confounders and average weekly alcohol amount.​

    So no alcohol consumption was used as the base if I am reading that correct. Sounds good to me!

    You may not get diabetes, but you wind up with liver failure. :eek:

    I will stick to my "green" California special… Spinach, kale, and seaweed smoothie. The preferred drink of all California liberals. :D
