Understanding alcohol units

Alcohol has a wide range of health impacts including liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancers (breast, bowel, throat and mouth).

The latest advice on controlling your alcohol intake is:

  • men and women shouldn’t drink more than 14 units a week regularly
  • spread your drinking over three or more days if you regularly drink as much as 14 units a week
