Here's Dionysus on how much wine you should drink:
>Three bowls do I mix for the temperate: one to health, which they empty first; the second to love and pleasure; the third to sleep. When this bowl is drunk up, wise guests go home. The fourth bowl is ours no longer, but belongs to violence; the fifth to uproar; the sixth to drunken revel; the seventh to black eyes; the eighth is the policeman's; the ninth belongs to biliousness; and the tenth to madness and the hurling of furniture.
>and the tenth to madness and the hurling of furniture.

Greek wine was way weaker than modern stuff and often mixed with water And a "bowl" was like those Japanese sake bowls, just little stone things instead of a cup

must have been lightweights then.
I do wonder how they lived till 80 on a diet of bread, olives and wine.
David Scott
In a few generations that image will lose its meaning.

That's like the healthiest diet around And people on these medditeranian islands still live over 100 years

From what I've read, the Sardinian diet (eaten by people that live the longest in the world) is mostly fruit, vegetables and legumes. This makes sense because that's where all the nutrients are. Bread lacks that.
Lincoln Morris
I wonder how did they get jacked on this kind of diet.
