No level of alcohol consumption is safe when it comes to human health, according to a WHO statement released in January, 2023. The data behind this dire warning come from a 2021 study that estimated the number of incident cancers attributable to alcohol consumption in the EU in 2017—light to moderate drinking (1–2 drinks per day) was responsible for 23 300 new cases of cancer. New Canadian guidelines take a strong stance too, suggesting that any more than two drinks per week puts your health at risk. Does this mean the days of safely enjoying a tipple are officially behind us?
Ok, point taken but who the fuck fills out those medical surveys correctly. The only time I ever could is when I would consistently smoke a pack a day. I’m not fucking tracking how many times I have a drink and certainly am not consistent about drinking from month to month.
