Scores are a qualitative synthesis of observational and clinical trial literature on alcohol and lipid/metabolic markers, not a predictive or diagnostic tool — individual response depends heavily on genetics, liver function, kidney health, body weight, food intake, and total volume of alcohol, not beverage type alone. This isn't medical advice; if you're managing cholesterol, gout, diabetes, or kidney disease, talk to your clinician about alcohol specifically for your situation.
