Dear Alok, The good benefits are for social drinker or occasional user. Few of them become dependent on alcohol. They have only harmful effects of health. They have difficulty in stopping of alcohol also. What is the correct consumable quantity depends on age, sex, medical illnesses, type of drink, fatty food intake with alcohol, etc. Generally less than 18 units/week for females and 21 units/week for males.
