This website is designed to cut through the confusing and often conflicting opinions and advice about alcohol. It features information, tools, and resources on low-risk drinking for health and safety, which can be used by professionals, media, and the general public.

The Low-Risk Drinking Guidelines include:

• upper limits for daily and weekly drinking

• information on a "standard drink"

• caveats, including certain drinking practices

• information on populations and groups for whom the Guidelines do not apply (e.g., pregnant women)

• tips for following the Guidelines
