• New research suggests alcohol-related health risks may begin at lower levels of drinking than previously thought.
• Researchers found no clear health benefit from even moderate alcohol consumption and concluded that both men and women should limit intake to no more than 1 drink per day.
• The findings add to growing evidence that any amount of drinking may carry long-term health risks.

A major new analysis suggests alcohol-related health risks may begin at lower levels of drinking.

Researchers found no clear health benefit from low-level alcohol consumption and concluded that both men and women should limit intake to no more than 1 drink per day. The study concludes that the risk of alcohol-related death begins at lower levels of consumption than previously suggested by federal guidelines.

The research, published on June 8 in the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs, estimated that the risk of death and other health risks begins with relatively small quantities. Researchers concluded that current U.S. alcohol guidance should recommend no more than 1 drink per day for both males and females.

The findings add to growing evidence that even moderate or socially accepted levels of drinking may carry long-term health risks, making individualized conversations about alcohol use increasingly important.

The new report was previously commissioned under the Biden administration to help inform the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Some of the findings were published in 2025, but they did not include specific recommendations about the number of drinks per day.

According to an editorial published alongside the study, the findings were not incorporated into the final guidelines released under the Trump administration.

“Alcohol’s harmful effects on the body are well established, so these findings are not surprising. They reinforce the many biological pathways through which alcohol, especially in higher amounts, can negatively impact overall health,” said Ketan K. Thanki, MD, board certified colorectal surgeon with the MemorialCare Todd Cancer Institute at Long Beach Medical Center in Long Beach, CA. Thanki wasn’t involved in the study.

Health risks accelerate after more than 1 drink a day

Unlike previous studies that followed a single group of people over time, the new analysis combined multiple national datasets, including federal health surveys, mortality records, alcohol consumption data, and disease statistics.

Researchers ultimately included 56 systematic reviews and meta-analyses for review.

They found no statistically significant overall health benefit from low-level drinking. Instead, alcohol-related mortality risk began rising at relatively modest levels of consumption.

The model estimated that lifetime alcohol-attributable mortality exceeded 1 death per 1,000 people at approximately 6.5 drinks per week for men and 7 drinks per week for females.

Risk climbed quickly beyond that point. The estimated lifetime risk of an alcohol-related death exceeded 1 in 100 people at roughly 8.5 drinks per week for both males and females.

For males consuming 14 drinks per week — the equivalent to the former U.S. recommendation of up to 2 drinks per day — the estimated lifetime risk of an alcohol-attributable death reached approximately 1
