The scans showed that as alcohol intake increased, so did the proportion of visceral fat. Men in the highest drinking group carried up to 13.5 per cent more visceral fat than those drinking the least.

The Cork footballers will have captain Ian Maguire available for their Round 6 home fixture against Kildare after his proposed two-match suspension was reduced to one on Thursday night. Maguire’s case went before the Central Hearings Committee last night as Cork challenged the assertion in referee Conor Dourneen’s report that the midfielder had struck with force during an off-the-ball altercation with Meath’s Adam O’Neill in the second-half of last Sunday's 1-23 to 1-21 victory over the Royals.
