How many is too many?
Well that depends on the size of your drink and what you're drinking. And this seems to be where a lot of us get caught out as not all drinks are equal.
Alcohol affects everyone in different ways and it’s important to know that drinking is never completely safe.
The Australian Alcohol Guidelines* recommend:
- healthy adults should drink no more than 10 standard drinks in a week, and no more than 4 standard drinks on any one day
- people under 18, and women who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding shouldn't drink any alcohol.
