Lots of posts saying being overweight is killing Americans, but this claims people overweight in their 70s and drinking moderately live longer.

Here's what in the article:
- People who drank moderate amounts of alcohol or coffee lived longer than those who abstained.
- People who were overweight in their 70s lived longer than normal or underweight people did.
1st item, checked.
2nd item, marked for reference as I am not yet 70. I will remember to eat more bacon when that time comes.
But, but, but, does this mean once you are past 70, it's time to go on a diet again? I guess I will have to learn to drink wine with tofu instead of with steak once I get to 80.
