When the results came in, he asked "You drink at least a beer a day, right?"
"Usually, yes."
"It looks like your liver has never even heard of alcohol."

Lucky me I suppose. Definitely not gonna take it as a challenge though.

Look at what DOBA said above about the cancers. My uncle was like you, never had a bad lab result or anything (sans for being a bit overweight). Drank what he wanted, ate what he wanted, everyone talked about how he must have good genes. Then he got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (alcohol is a big cause) and was dead within a year. The cancer-alcohol link is growing everyday in the medical scientific community. And all these new craft beers with all the heavy hops and additives are going to make things worse I imagine.

Acetaldehyde is produced by the partial oxidation of ethanol in the human body. It is carcinogenic.

This scene,or at least the beginning of it, sums it up pretty well...
