An interesting idea.
Does not effect me too. 34 years teetotal. I stopped not for the physical health benefits but the mental, psychological, social benefits.
I was in the midst of dropping out of university, and found myself one night try to gather the money - coins, change - to go buy a drink. In that instance I knew I had to abstain.
I am not telling others to stop, I just knew for a young man back then it was not a good thing for me.
I know that water could be deadly in days of old, hence the brewing of beers and wines etc. We now have clean drinking water.
Makes you think... Well, me anyhow.
Barkeep, a mug of tea if you please
