Alcohol advice and support

What are the recommended daily limits for alcohol?

Drinking under the recommended daily limit can reduce the risk of health problems in the future.

• Men should not regularly drink more than 3 - 4 units a day.
• Women should not regularly drink more than 2 - 3 units a day.

You should give your body regular days off from alcohol.

What are units?

Units are a simple way of expressing the quantity of pure alcohol in a drink. The number of units in a drink is based on the size of the drink as well as its alcohol strength.
