NHS Scotland: How does your weekly drinking add up?

It's recommended that you don't drink more than 14 units of alcohol a week, spread out over at least 3 days, to keep the risks from alcohol low. This is the same for both men and women.

But what does that look like for you?

Whether you’re into craft beer, a fruity cider fan or prefer a lager, it’s important to know how those units can add up. Whatever your choice, drinking six pints equals the recommended weekly limit of 14 units.
