alcohol awareness month in april

According to the Rethinking Drink campaign, 7 in 10 adults always drink at low-risk levels or do not drink at all, and 3 in 10 adults drink at levels that put them at risk for alcoholism, liver disease and other problems.

Did you know that 1 drink is equivalent to a 12-ounce bottle of beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounce shot of liquor? Keep this into consideration when thinking about how much alcohol you are actually consuming.

If you are wondering how much money you’re spending on alcohol, check out this alcohol spending calculator from nhi.gov here.
