Only 2 in 5 adults correctly identify unit content, finds Drinkaware survey



Only two in five adults (42%) recognise how many alcohol units are in common drinks, according to research by Drinkaware. The survey also found that less than a third of adults (29% of women and 32% of men) can correctly state the recommended daily unit guidelines for their respective gender.

The survey of over 4,000 UK adults found whilst 85% of adults had heard of 'alcohol units', only 30% of women and 46% of men could correctly identify which drinks roughly equate to one unit of alcohol when given a list of drinks. See the press release here.  > > > > Read More
