Health expert Dr Michael Mosley has his own approach to alcohol, which involves striking a good balance between enjoying a glass or two of wine while still staying healthy.
There's conflicting advice when it comes to the consumption of alcohol, as some studies suggest that consuming any amounts could be bad for you, whereas others have shown that it may have protective qualities, and could actually do your body good.
Writing on his Fast 800 diet website, the doctor explained that the UK guidelines for drinking alcohol are much lower than Italy and Spain, and advise to limit consumption to 14 units a week.
