BBC bias alert

The BBC report that
"Drinking alcohol every day cuts the risk of heart disease in men by more than a third, a major study suggests.

The Spanish research involving more than 15,500 men and 26,000 women found large quantities of alcohol could be even more beneficial for men.

Female drinkers did not benefit to the same extent, the study in Heart found. "
But as this does not fit their world view that alcohol is evil, how sharia law compliant of them, they have to immediately state that:
"Experts are critical, warning heavy drinking can increase the risk of other diseases, with alcohol responsible for 1.8 million deaths globally per year.

The study was conducted in Spain, a country with relatively high rates of alcohol consumption and low rates of coronary heart disease. "

Oddly the BBC never issue "health warnings" about reports that state how dangerous alcohol drinking is even when they are later proved to have conclusions that are almost entirely fictional.
