> "about 5 to 7 beers or 6 to 8 glasses of wine" in one week is very different if you have one beer a day, or if you drink the same amount on a Saturday night outing.
Is this true?
Is this true?
But people incorrectly think you can just spread out the drinks over a week and be fine, Drinking one glass (275 ml, not that big) of wine (12%, not that strong) every day is something like 23 units. We know that's increasing risks of a range of harm.
EDIT: I got my mls wrong! (Thanks mattmanser for pointing this out).
175 * 12 = just over 2 units.
UK standard measures are 125ml small, 175ml medium, 250ml large.
175ml is a normal glass of wine and is 2.3 units, or 16 units a week. 23 units is 2 and a bit bottles of wine.
You've got your units wrong.
