Injured DNA

Unlike most people that would typically enjoy alcohol on their free time, it is  not uncommon that given my line of work, that on a normal Tuesday I'll be busy sampling ten or more mezcales.  That is the reason why I've been trying to educate myself, finding the best ways not to destroy my body. But it turns out that there are a multitude of versions of what a non dangerous intake of alcohol means. Canada claims that if you have  3 drinks a week  you are asking for trouble, while Japan is happy to suggest that   half a liter of beer or a glass of sake a day may  not hurt at all.  In these series of episodes, with Cockatil MD Ryan Aycock, I've been trying to better understand the news articles that come my way. On this episode lets talk about how alcohol may be damaging your DNA.
