The analysis showed those who drank moderately were more likely to have lower cardiovascular disease risk, heart rate, stress, depression and body mass index.
They also scored higher on health measures such as respiratory function and physical activity.
Among women, similar trends were seen in moderate drinkers who had lower blood pressure and waist circumference, according to the findings published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

It’s a technique Skarsgård picked up from assiduously studying Bela Lugosi’s Dracula and Murnau’s and Herzog’s versions of Nosferatu and even The Lost Boys. But that look—and the inscrutability and coiled tension he gives Eric—is also something he learned from hours spent watching nature documentaries.
“It’s, like, you see this big male lion, and he’s chilling in the sun, and he sits up and he looks at something, and you don’t know if he’s going to pounce or if he’s just going to go back to sleep,” Skarsgård says, his steely gaze unwavering, looking like he could easily break into a yawn. “You never know if he’s bored or he’s frustrated or what.

After the first glass of vodka
you can accept just about anything
of life even your own mysteriousness
you think it is nice that a box
of matches is purple and brown and is called

you know them not because you understand them
because you don’t you are stupid and lazy
and will never be great but you do
what you know because what else is there?— Frank O’Hara
