Dr. Omer Awan at Forbes writes, “An equally important lesson from the advisory should be one of re-examining our relationship with alcohol. Given the detrimental health effects of alcohol, public health leaders should lead the way into a cultural shift in recognizing alcohol for what it is; namely a toxic drug that can do much harm.”

Opportunity for input until February 14th!
“The U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Agriculture (USDA) invite the public to submit written comments to the Departments on two reports on alcoholic beverages and health. The public comment period will remain open until February 14, 2025. The findings from both reports, along with public comments and federal agency input, will be considered by HHS and USDA as the Departments develop guidance on alcoholic beverages in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025-2030.”
