>Is _ good for you (in moderation)?

no health benefits

it's a meme for boring turtleneck wearing faggots

>>24839810
I have the exact same glass and I usually drink scotch. A few glasses per week is fine, as long as you don’t make it an every day habit.

>tfw slept in instead of going to my usual liquor store on their weekly delivery day and they got EH Taylor Single Barrel.

Only when paired with a cigar do you get the health benefits

>>24839810
No amount of whiskey is good for you health wise, although it's not the worst alcohol you can drink.

I like the taste, and of course the buzz from it. I'm not the wealthiest person so my go to is Jim Bean Black, Wild Turkey 101, and if I feel like splurging a bit, Elijah Craig or Knob Creek. Sometimes I'll get JW Red or Black if I'm in the mood for some scotch.

Remember, bourbon is for sipping. Don't expect to get a bottle and be able to down it like Irish Whiskey. Pair it up with a good cigar and try to relax.

aye baws this pug here dont wana take the vaccine, what shoul dwe do wit em baws. i say we take em up town and send his momma some flowers capishe? You make sure to bump into him clean see?

>reduces testosterone production days after ingestion.
>increases the production of estrogen.
>reduces the efficiency of protein muscles synthesis.
>increased chance for heart disease.
>fucks with your autoimmune system.
>fucks with your sleep.
>makes you fatigued.

I wasn't aware that a pro-alcohol stance is a partisan issue. I'm no straight edge purist, but at least understand that alcohol is more harmful than helpful, especially when taken regularly.

>>24840555
>>increases the production of estrogen
Is this true?

>>24840555i smoke cigs so it counters the low test,
im jacked and estrogen just dont happen bruh
my heart already fucked
my immune system jacked i kicked covids ass m8
i sleep like a baby 10 hours a day
i got hypo thyroidism so im already tired all the time.
enjoy life dude u only live so long

>>24840399
"Researchers out of Oregon found alcohol can help boost your immune system and fight off infection – not to mention the vasodilation properties of whiskey can improve the function of your mucus membranes, upping their chance of dealing"

yeah if you make it yourself from grain. real ale is good for you, true whiskey is distilled beer. the better the beer was the better the whiskey. aging in oak adds its own benefits and the charcoal purifies it further. its definitely a tonic and was once prescribed to people

>>24840555
literally none of this is an issue if you pray to the iron temple every day like every man should.

If you don't know what this means, you probably already have low test and high estrogen to begin with.

>>24840555
plus he said "moderation" ur test levels can drop a litlte its not gona kill you and they always go back up depending on diet... so.... i mean you have an argument but you really dont if we are thinking critically. alcohol has medicinal properties and been used for centuries to treat wounds kill infection and help people get thru a hrad day. to say its ONLY bad for you is totally retarded and indulgent on ignorance.

>>24839810
I drink 4 bourbon and diet cokes every night of the week. Usually Old Granddad 114 or Wild Turkey 101. Probably the equivalent of 8-12 drinks nightly.

Is this good for me?

>>24839810
No, it's haram.

>>24840681
It's probably not "good", but I think it could be worse

>>24840681
>Old Granddad 114
Richfag?

>>24840681
get rid of the diet coke. Soda is terrible for you.

>>24840652
oh but dont forget goy, its illegal to boil beer and condense the vapors! huh i wonder why? no its not fucking dangerous, the worst youl do is flood your place with a cooling water leak.

Next XSG needs to be a fuck jannies edition. Did the jannies seriously delete the XSG thread?

This FUD just makes me want to buy even more. Jannies deleting XSG is bullish beyond all understanding.

>>24840681
>every night of the week.
Yeah, that might be a problem.

>>24840711
67k LINK stack, 13 ETH, $87k annual salary at a fedcuck job with $3k monthly expenses. So yeah, I've got money (and liver cells) to burn.

>>24840724
I know but it's not the same without the mixer. I literally don't even like whiskey straight.

Idiots on here know don't know anything about good whiskey. Buncha broke aholes.

>>24840767
Try using flavored sparkling water that's made with pure ingredients and no fake sugars / sucralose instead. It will take the edge off the whiskey and hydrate you at the same time.. Take the true whiskey soda pill

>>24840681
it will eventually start messing with your live.r. you really shouldnt drink more then 1 glass anight if that. id try start cutting it in halves. its gonna hurt comin off all that. good luck

I know 3 people that made it past 100 and they all said they drank a small glass of whiskey every night for decades

>>24839810
No
In moderation, only beer and wine are good for your health
t.nurse

>>24839810
i've learned that anything that prevents you from getting REM sleep isn't good for you, this includes the liquid jew, i do occasionally indulge on holidays, however

>>24839810
In moderation it makes your heart stronger since it is an acute stresser. I think my Grandma owes her long life to her daily scotch. She does not get hammered on this btw so the key is "in moderation"

>>24840607
Kek, imagine calling other people libtards and then admitting you're a degenerate. You types may not be the first on the day of the rope but you'll eventually have to line up.

>enjoy life.
Right, because smoking cigarettes and drinking an excessive amount of alcohol is "enjoying life", right? I bet you are miserable.

>>24840637
Stop with the easy confirmation bias. There is no debate in the medical community that alcohol helps your immune system more than hurts it. You don't have to believe me, check out the wealth of information on the NIH.

>>24840664
If you are referring to lifting I am on SL. There is a noticable reduction in my gains and workout intensity when I drink on a weekend. I try to drink only two to three times a month because of this.

>>24840885
I can't disagree with you there. My run times as well as overall fitness improved when I went on a multi month sober streak. With that being said on days after I drank, I usually only did cardio / HITT to help sweat out the alcohol.

>>24841094
The worst offender for me is beer. I love the taste of good beer but it does terrible things to the body, especially if your tolerance is high. It's like the reduced physical performance you experience with liquor but add feeling bloated and disgusting during your entire workout.

>>24839810
Yeah so is tequila. Makes you alpha

>>24839810
is this the new gay dogwhistle on here or something?

I have no ice but made a sour last night. Not as good with no ice :(

>>24841311
I had to switch to the finance bro / chad tonic, I gave up on beer. If you're wondering what that is, at the time it was Vodka Soda. Now it's any alcoholic seltzer that isn't made with rice sugar (So Trulys or White claws, any other brand is basically just drinking beer)

>>24839810
yes it's good for you in moderation as is trading SFX but who stops at moderation?

>>24840681
>>24840754
brain damage-wise it's actually better to drink daily since the real, irrepairable damage occurs when your brain goes through withdrawal over and over
it will fuck your liver over time, but you can just buy a new one of those with your crypto gains. liver damage doesn't happen anywhere near as fast as people seem to think it does and will mostly repair itself as long as you aren't still getting trashed all the time like an 18 year old in your late 30's

>>24840885
manimagine being so low iq you cant imagine having a drink every now and then and a smoke and not being 100% content in life holy shit bro. May i recommend not being a complete douche face LOL

>>24840637
>>24840885
Your just mad i actually quoted from a university research experiment and all you did was blab like a true libtard. May i recommend not being such a closet commie gas lighter

whiskey is not good for you but coffee is

>>24839810
I just had some whisky in hot cider. Pretty warm and tasty. Comfy winter beverage. Still doesn't replace the warmth and softness of a woman. I'm so lonely bros.

>>24839810
Take NAC. Enjoy drinking it.

>>24841311
have a good straight bourbon on the rocks bro actually has taste and makes u feel real real good. Also helps with colds, Hot toddy baby

I recommend replacing with marijuana edibles 1x per week. I realized there’s nothing insightful about alcohol and it really does destroy your health over time.

>>24841921
Actually, caffeine raises cortisol.

>intoxicants
>porn
>hookers
These are vices one is better off without. If you need to loosen up Kratom is the lesser evil compared to alcohol.

>>24840601
Yes, beer is the worst offender there though.

Machines need Lubrication to run properly. A constant supply of lubricant is needed to function at full capacity and efficiently. The Mind is the most complex machine we have. Does the mind not need lubricants? Does the mind not benefit from lubricants? I believe the Mind needs a good oiling everyday. With your choice of course, of any alcohol based lubricant. Unlike modern machines the mind is very easy to maintain. Lubricants simply need to be absorbed. Either directly ingested or indirectly through the anus.

>>24841997
Bourbon > whiskey

>>24840664
What if I do cardio every day and lift full body 3 days a week for 2+ hours? I focus on core and legs with some arms

>>24840555
>reduces testosterone production
>''muh testosterone''
faggot self-improover
you will never be a Chad

>>24841484
Gib more specifics on your drink of choice, anon.

>>24840677
Checked, stress is a killer

the fuck is moderation?

>>24839810

Every form and amount of alcohol increases your cancer risk, and a lot of them are really nasty cancers you don't want. Obv heavy drinking increases it a lot, but even 1-2 drinks a week still increases it some.

If what you want is something to relax with, there are safer options IMO.

>>24842736
Getting older increases cancer risk too, anon.

>>24842391
>you will never be a Chad
Typical response from someone who unironically uses "chad" to categorize people. Imagine neglecting your health and being content to swim in a sea of mediocrity and instant gratification.

Crabs in a bucket. You'll never amount to anything.

>>24842250
How did you pass this?

>>24842260
>lift full body

Then yes, you are doing an effective amount of praying. Mens testosterone lowers because they aren't producing enough due to lack of physical exertion.. Just lift weights & eat steaks.

>>24839810
No.

To any anons who are struggling with drinking, look into the EasyWay method. Already helping me a TON.

>>24839992
Get JW green instead and thank me later

>>24840681
Drink it neat pussy

>>24840779
Shut up nigger and go drink your hypnotiq

>>24840789
Do not take this advice. Learn to enjoy your whiskey neat.

>>24839992
good ole boy

>>24840601
just inject testerone into your balls like Sam Hyde

>>24840779
Favourite:
>bourbon: Belle Mead Reserve (Limited Batch, Cask Strength)
>scotch: Oban
>Canadian whiskey: Crown Royal Royal Harvest
come at me

It is not easy to find a good platform with crypto solutions to invest in.

Came across on DuckDAO, read twi posts of crypto skilled users. Seems like it is a transparent platform with an investment system. Do you know anything about it?

>>24840795
My great grandmother lived until 99 (3 months short of 100) and she had a drink of Napoleon every night

>>24842736
can confirm anecdotally
got lymphoma and I drank every day of the weekend for as long as I remember. But I’m also fat and was super stressed all the time throughout grad school. I think moderation all around truly is key

>>24842250
I shall lubricant indeed

>>24845098
Bourbon from Tennessee... jfc dude get a grip

>>24839810
>inb4 a bunch of faggots don't like it because they tried a cheap blend once topped off with lots of coke and ice when they were 16
I enjoy it. Health wise, a few whiskies at the weekend won't kill you.

>>24845098
Sorry to double (you) but if you’re not drinking hand selected single barrel or small batch Kentucky bourbon from a master distiller who knows their shit, you are poor and/or know nothing about whiskey.

>>24840789
uggh...whiskey soda?
Vodka soda with a squeeze of lime is better.

>>24839992
Just stick with Knob Creek

>>24840399
So does a glass of orange juice

>>24839810
2cl was good if your family has history of dying from heart attacks. With cancer history it goes to 0
