Health chiefs are urging the Government to consider following Canadian health authorities’ new advice which recommends drinking just a pint a week.
Beaumont liver specialist, Dr John Ryan, said that the soundings from Canada shows that “there is no safe limit for drinking alcohol.”
The new guidelines on safe drinking from the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) concludes that any alcohol consumption is harmful and it makes the call to introduce new recommended lower weekly quotas of just two drinks a week.
