The new Dietary Guidelines in the United States minimize this health risk, says science

The scientific community is in contradiction with new government recommendations in safe alcohol consumption.


The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have published aNew set of dietary guidelines Tuesday means informing healthy food choices and policies in the country for the next five years. The document included tips for infant and toddlers for the first time, as well as new tips for pregnant and lactating women. Despite this progress, the scientific community is proving to concern an area where recommendations have not been updated: alcohol consumption.

Scientists on the Advisory Committee on Food Guidelines have recommended thatTips for safe alcohol consumption were to be revised of two drinks a day for men and a glass a day for women at a glass per day for men and women, according toCnn. But the new guideline website affirms "there was not a preponderance of evidence in the equipment the Committee examined to support specific changes, as required by law." As a result, the USDA and DHHs maintain this "moderate" alcohol consumption for men, considered safe, is equivalent to two drinks a day. (In touch:Vitamin doctors exhort everyone to take right now.)

Representatives of the medical community argue that these tips are deceptive. Dr. Nigel Brockton, Vice President of Research forAmerican Institute for Cancer Researchsaid inA statement to CNN Whether the conservation of the two drinks - the guideline per day implies that there is a safe quantity of alcohol for men to consume daily, when in reality, there is none.

"This opinion is contrary to the convincing evidence that the consumption of consumption of a glass per day raises the risk of several types of cancer, including cancers of the head and neck, esophagus and breast," the declaration is bed.
