In 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) stated unequivocally that no level of alcohol consumption is safe for our health, a declaration that reshaped public health conversations globally. The latest alcohol recommendations reflect this shift, moving away from previous notions of moderate intake having benefits toward a harm reduction model that prioritizes public health and awareness.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), moderate drinking is defined as consuming two drinks or less per day for men and one drink or less per day for women. This distinction is based on the different ways male and female bodies process alcohol, among other factors.
