The other comment is a pretty good baseline (1 a day), but there is some nuance to it. Gender/body size/age, etc all play a role. And it matters if youre literally doing 1 a day or averaging 1 a day. Having 7 drinks every saturday is not the same and have 1 drink with dinner every day.
The best answer is, consult your medical professional
More than 0. There is no save amount of alcohol. But almost nothing we do is save. Go outside in the sun? Cancer! Eat fat/sugar? Heart/Liver failure! Stress from work and doomscrolling? Depression and anxiety!
Choose your poison, but know it is poisonous! Cheers 🍻
For sure, but in the context of “fucking up your brain” I’m talking about the line where you move from “increasing your risk of certain problems” to “actively developing lesions in your brain”.
I mean, more than a few drinks a week will fuck up your brain.
What constitutes “more than a few” here?
About 1 a day – if you’re going over that, you’d be considered a “heavy drinker”
But even that much is still “bad” for you, just not as bad.
My wife worries about my drinking. I might have 18 cans of beer in a year if I’m really going crazy.
