Although it's Friday -- a time we all like to spend unwinding and putting our feet up -- you may want to consider sipping on that extra glass of vino tonight.
Researchers at Britain's University of Cambridge say that an extra glass of wine... or beer... can shorten your life.
Experts say their findings show that each glass of wine or pint of beer over the recommended daily limit will knock a half-hour off the expected lifetime of a 40-year-old.
One scientist involved in the study said drinking more than that raises the health risk for a 40-year-old as much as smoking.
