I also wonder about this. I know some men in their 70s that have been drinking heavily since their 20s, and they are still drinking till now, and nothing is wrong with them. In fact, i still saw one of them drunk yesterday night...his wife had to take a bike to bring him home. This man is in his mid 60s, and still drinks heavily. And he looks healthy. I guess some people liver strong pass other people own. Or is there a diet that helps keep the liver healthy?

Ok now,doctors only care, God cures!!!
