So if you drink 2 bottles of wine a day, feel well and are perfectly behaved you're fine to continue?

Yes Kiz - IF your own unique constitution affords you to tolerate such consumption WITHOUT adversely afecting your health.

Health apart, some people can drink copious amounts of alcohol without ill effect nor altering their social behaviour, others can have just a couple of drinks and turn into aggressive, trouble causers.

2 bottles of wine is roughly 20 units of alcohol and 1000 calories, anyone who thinks consuming this much regularly will not have an adverse effect even if you don't notice at the time they are deluding themselves. It will ultimately have one.

It's never 'if'... it's ' when'.
