Representatives of the alcohol industry were displeased with a leading Biden administration official's recommendation to cut back on alcohol consumption.

Director of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism George Koob stated in a Thursday interview that he was considering a revision of the United States's health recommendations with regard to alcohol. Koob said he was watching Canada's decision to overturn its alcohol guidelines only to two drinks a week with interest. This decision to limit a citizen's access to alcohol was not well received by the alcohol industry.

Current health recommendations would have women consume up to one bottle of beer, a small glass of wine, or a shot of spirit per day, while men can have two. These guidelines could change in 2025."Most of the benefits people attribute to alcohol, we feel they really have more to do with what someone's eating rather than what they're drinking.
