Moderate alcohol consumption has no health benefits, analysis finds

may help prevent heart disease or even a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.The new analysis, published on March 31 in JAMA Network Open, reviewed more than 100 studies published as far back as 1980, involving nearly 5 million people in total. It found that there was a "significantly increased risk" of death among female drinkers who drank 25 or more grams of alcohol per day, which is about two 5-ounce glasses of wine, two 12-ounce beers, or two cocktails containing 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits. The same significantly increased risk was found for males who drank 45 or more grams of alcohol per day, or slightly over three standard drinks.FILE - A woman pours wine into a glass at home. (Photo by Finn Winkler/picture alliance via Getty Images) The analysis was conducted by researchers at the University of Victoria’s Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research and the University of Portsmouth’s Department of Psychology. They concluded how many of these previous studies were flawed with "systematic biases" that may have skewed the results.The study authors noted how scientists in previous studies failed to control for certain factors that are typical for light and moderate drinkers – such as being "systematically healthier" and tending to have better exercise habits and dental hygiene, lower weight, and wealthier.

Frank founder Charlie Javice arrested in New Jersey on fraud charges

NEW YORK - The founder of Frank, a student loan assistance startup company that J.P. Morgan Chase acquired for $175 million two years ago, was arrested on charges that she duped the financial giant by dramatically inflating the number of customers her company had, authorities said.Charlie Javice, 31, of Miami Beach, Florida, was arrested Monday night in New Jersey on conspiracy, wire and bank fraud charges.A charging document in Manhattan federal court said she claimed her company had over four million users when it had fewer than 300,000 customers."This arrest should warn entrepreneurs who lie to advance their businesses that their lies will catch up to them."Authorities said Javice, who appeared on the Forbes 2019 "30 Under 30" list, would have earned $45 million from the fraud.Javice and her lawyer declined to comment as they left court after Javice signed a $2 million bond and agreed to curfew and possible electronic monitoring if court officers decide it is necessary. She also agreed not to contact key figures in the case — including investors — except for her mother and her mother's boyfriend.In a release, U.S.
