Zero-alcohol challenge: Goodbye Dry January, hello Dry February
In mid-January, the Centre on Substance Use and Addiction released the latest update on Alcohol and Health.
February marks the end of Dry January, and some of you who participated in it might return to enjoying their two standard alcoholic drinks.
The new guidelines advise drinkers to limit their alcohol consumption to two drinks per week, a drastic decrease from the 2011 standards.
Similarly, a recent Cancer Society report found that that 42 per cent of alcohol-consuming people are drinking it at a level that comes with serious health risks.
