Alcohol consumption and mortality among Canadian drinkers: A national population‐based survival analysis (2000–2017)
The findings support the CGAH recommendations, highlighting the importance of lower alcohol consumption limits to reduce health risks. Public health efforts should focus on increasing awareness and adherence to these guidelines, particularly among women who face greater mortality risks at higher consumption levels. Ongoing monitoring of alcohol consumption is critical for tracking and evaluating low-risk drinking guideline effectiveness in reducing alcohol-related harm.
