10. Lowers Stress
Isn’t that one of the main reasons for drinking whiskey? Stress relief? Stress is hard on the brain and will run your body ragged if left unchecked. Whiskey calms the nerves and relieves stress, which is the base cause of numerous health problems. A shot or two of whiskey will calm the nerves, relieve stress, and improve circulation. This is one of the main reasons people turn to whiskey after they have had a rough day.
11. Hangover Free (Almost)
Whiskey has got to be one of the best choices when it comes to alcohol for so many reasons, but here is another one: Assuming you are limiting your consumption to only one or two shots, you should avoid any hangover symptoms. Most people find that wine and vodka give them headaches, even in small amounts, while others will tell you that tequila gives you raging headaches and nausea in the morning. Studies have shown that whiskey drinkers have the lowest levels of hangover symptoms. Now there are exception to every rule, and if you are one of those, then by all means, abstain.

12. You Love It
Broccoli and cauliflower are super healthy, but what good do they do if you can’t stand the taste? This is true of any health food or drink. The great thing about whiskey is this: It tastes good! So chances are excellent that, especially now that you know how good a few fingers can be, you will drink it on a regular basis.
Bet you wish you had known about all these benefits earlier so you could have felt more comfortable drinking a shot with Grandma! You’re welcome.

Although I drink my share of Vodka or a Canadian blend on weekends, I see all these claims as lies, and untrue ! ! !
What about liver and stomach damage ? And if it helps UR memory, how come U can’t remember acting like a fool last night after drinking ?
One good thing I do believe, it gets rid of a cold / flu faster, because it renders the germs / viruses drunk and less dehabilitating. LOL ! ! ! P.S., Barkeep, I’ll have a nudder.

Drinking in moderation is different than getting drunk.

Since the context of this article is ‘drinking in moderation’, its not as surprising.
