Alcohol is dangerous for all people but particularly for those under 40.
“Our message is simple: young people should not drink, but older people may benefit from drinking small amounts. While it may not be realistic to think young adults will abstain from drinking, we do think it’s important to communicate the latest evidence so that everyone can make informed decisions about their health,” says senior author Dr.
The new study is the first to report alcohol risk by geographical region, age, sex, and year. The work took into account data for males and females aged 15–95 years and older between 1990 and 2020 in 204 countries and territories. In every region, the study found that the most significant segment of the population drinking unsafe amounts of alcohol were males aged 15–39. The research further revealed that 60% of alcohol-related injuries occurred among people in this age group, including motor vehicle accidents, suicides, and homicides.
Overall, at this age, there were absolutely no health benefits associated with drinking only health risks. The analysis did find that for people aged 40 and older without any underlying health conditions, drinking a small amount of alcohol may provide some benefits, such as reducing the risk of ischemic heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
