How much alcohol should you drink?


Listen Later

How much alcohol should you drink in order to enjoy alcohol at a safe level? 

Well, as of January 2023, Canada has announced that their new recommendation for a safe amount of alcohol to drink is ZERO!!   

And if you must drink, then it should be no more than two drinks (a glass of wine or a beer) per week!  

Previously they had recommended around 10 drinks per week in line with the US (the UK currently recommends about 6 per week).  

The new guidelines are based on new research that says "any amount of alcohol is a risk to your health".  

What do you think? Will this change how much alcohol you drink?
