I think one of the main points of this study is exactly to show that studying such smaller quantities would be worthwhile and could have tangible health implications

    They are addressing a common myth that a small amount of alcohol has health benefits, which has always been bullshit junk science promoted by beer and wine industry and european culture.

    It was true 250 years ago in the time of cholera, when it was safer to drink weak ales than local water supplies.
