What is scientifically sound, "everything in moderation" or "zero is the amount if it's bad for you"?

Ben Franklin quote, “Moderation in all things—including moderation.”

I agree.

Everything is bad for you. Even drinking too much water will kill you but I wouldn’t advise avoiding it entirely. On the other hand there are things we should avoid such as cigarette smoke.

@flutherother I’m sure you’re not serious, about the water.

@flutherother I meant re. your water is bad for you simply because it can be fatal if excessive amount. part.

@flo Drink when you are thirsty. There is nothing wrong with that.

Everything can be fatal in excess, @flo. It may not kill you instantly and directly, but it may kill you before it was your time to go otherwise.

In case you wondered where this Q came from

If only flat earthers can be moderate! They could say “the earth is somewhat flat”
