It is only those people who drink themselves into a stupor every single day of their lives that truly have to worry about dying from alcohol poisoning. Those on the other hand who drink one glass of a mild drink on a rare occasion have nothing to fear." Veniarus explains.[OOC]Actually there is speculation in real life regarding a type of wine called Red Wine that indicates that it may actually be healthy for a person if taken in a strict disciplined amount instead of in unhealthy quantities. I believe it is the French who tend to utilize this feature of Red Wine the most by drinking a cup of the substance each day. But I could be mistaken.Also one has to consider the fact that in medieval societies, often times the ground water would have been polluted due to having mixed with the waste products of humans among other things. Thus often times the only safe thing to drink would have been one of various alcoholic beverages due to the fact that Alcoholic beverages are by nature completely sterilized.[/OOC]</blockquote>
