Comment on Even light drinking raises risk of cancer, heart disease, and early deathparent

A pint of beer a day is a lot. It's almost 500 calories - a meal by itself.

EDIT: I multiplied wrong, it's more like 250 calories.

I don't see how that's "stringent".

Maybe there are different sized pints, but in the uk a pint of beer is about 200 calories.

Depends on your social circle of course, but it’s pretty standard to have two or three pints if you meet up with friends in a pub.

Nah I multiplied wrong. Edited my comment.
