Their conclusion differs from the current U.S. dietary guidelines.
Americans should limit their alcohol consumption to no more than one drink per day, according to a study published Tuesday in the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs.
The recommendation — from an international team of scientists — differs from the U.S. dietary guidelines, both past and present. Previous guidelines recommended a daily limit of two alcoholic drinks for men and one for women. The latest version, released by the Trump administration in January, is less precise. It recommends only that Americans “consume less alcohol for better overall health.”
The current less-is-best message is accurate but too vague, said study co-author Priscilla Martinez-Matyszczyk, deputy scientific director of the Alcohol Research Group at the Public Health Institute, an independent nonprofit organization in California. People need quantified guidance so they can make informed decisions about their drinking, she said.



my father drank himself to death. He died maybe on the toilet, but his whole apartment was covered in piss, shit and blood, as he wandered around helplessly for however long his heart was failing. I didnt go in the bathroom, you couldnt, it was a massive bio hazard and where they found his corpse.
He was estranged from his family. He sat dead in that apartment for three days before someone called a wellness check.
super fun.
Im sorry for your loss. Im sorry to say whether through drugs or not in my country the United States that kind of death of slowly dying seems to be guaranteed if you’re not rich. Ive seen poor elderly folk that get neglected in nursing homes to the point of their skin on their bums rotting from the prolonged exposure to their own shit.
