IQ and alcohol consumption are highly correlated. IQ and health & longevity and highly correlated. I think even a lot of alcohol in the context of a good diet is benign, but I'm skeptical about the health benefit claims. I think they're just not properly controlling for other factors like intelligence. Somebody needs to run the data controlling for IQ.
