Trekking The World of Craft Beer Reno/Cali Style!

When Temperance Raises its Ugly Head Faulty Research Ain’t Far Away.

Dr. Laura Catena
Dr. Catena responds to the Probibition/Temperance oriented drum beat with balancing perspectives/facts and Temperance promoted research.
I have known of Dr. Laura Catena for a few years. Wrote an article about her work in the wine business in Argentina and research at UC Davis, after following articles of late concerning "Best to Never Drink any beverages alcohol. The warnings are familiar to those coming out of the Prohibition era in the U.S. There seemed to be a theme and a rhythm to the articles which never deviated from a dire warning of apocalyptic tones. Well, rest easy a glass of wine or craft beer or spirit daily is not as stated in modern-day Temperance warnings. Of course, dire proclamations from temperance research can have faults influencing outcome/interpretation of the research. Dr. Catena has done a great job in her presentation of the questionable conclusions in current Beverage Alcohol research and conclusions. She is a Emerbency Room Doctor, a medical degree from Stanford, a biology degree from Harvard,, whe owns a winery in Mendoza,, and finally she works the vineyard herself when in Mendoza. She has done medical research and fully understands how to understand research results and the influences of those funding academic research. These are my opinions about the sucbject at hand and I have had no contact with Dr. Catena or SevenFiftyDaily.com.
