Biases inherent in all-cause mortality studies: implications for shaping the 2025–2030 dietary guidelines for Americans on alcohol consumption
Alcohol is an addictive substance that has both detrimental and protective health outcomes at low doses.1 The net impact of alcohol on health at low doses depends on the underlying risks of diseases and injuries causally linked to alcohol and thus varies across countries. As such, informing the public about the health risks of alcohol consumption requires country-specific information. The Review of Evidence on Alcohol and Health by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) aims to inform the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
