A study at the University of Texas found that people who drink alcohol regularly live longer than those who abstain completely.

Researchers found out that those who did not consume any alcohol appeared to have a higher mortality rate than those who drank heavily, regardless of whether they were former heavy drinkers or not. The lowest mortality rate was found among moderate drinkers who have one to three drinks a day.

The study was published in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research.
