Alcohol is causally linked to more than 200 health conditions, ranging from liver diseases and cancer to cardiovascular problems and tuberculosis. Alcohol use is also a contributing factor to socio-economic issues like domestic violence and unemployment.
Across the Americas, someone dies from alcohol-related causes every ten seconds.
The truth is: alcohol gets in the way of living a healthier life, but by simply reducing your consumption, many of the alcohol-related health conditions can be reduced.

Many health and social issues can be mitigated by reducing alcohol use.
