Men Urged to Limit Alcohol to One Drink a Day Amid New Concerns

Men should consume no more than one alcoholic drink a day, according to a federal committee’s recommendations for new U.S. dietary guidelines.

That’s a reduction from the current recommended limit of two drinks a day, and matches the guidance for women. The shift reflects scientists’ evolving thinking on moderate drinking, and comes as a 20-year rise in Americans’ drinking is accelerating during the pandemic. 

Earlier research linked moderate drinking to a lower risk of heart disease. But many health experts now say some of those studies are flawed, and that there’s more and better evidence showing wider health risks of alcohol.
