I agree with all this, except “don’t drink”. 2 drinks a week will very unlikely to lead you to you poor health in your 30s-50s, and likely well beyond that.

You have more chance to die in a traffic accident as a pedestrian, just because modern cars are ridiculously safe. I've in an accident, I was in the car on passenger seat. If I was not in the car - I would post here, because at that collision speed pedestrians doesn't survive. It absolutely doesn't matter if I drunk that day or not. Or just was on my way to drink a lot.
