Recommended level for men falls to 14 units
The Island's new weekly alcohol consumption guidelines mirror changes made in the UK 13 months ago.
Yesterday, it was announced the recommended level for men was 14 units, down from 21.
A drug and alcohol steering group in government considered the changes in the UK as well as reviewing the guidelines in a number of European countries.
But Public Health Strategist Dawn Henley says it made sense to follow Westminster's lead:
Man found with more than £110k of drugs jailed
25-year-old jailed for seven years
CURA's 'primary concern' is making sure customers well-informed about switch-off of copper network
Manx Telecom plans to end the service by 2029
Public Health says it has not recommended changes to frequency of breast screening

Boards have branded bill 'scary' and 'inequitable'
