The findings show mortality risk from alcohol of 1 in 25 for people who consumed an average of 14 drinks per week. In contrast, drinking up to 7 drinks per week was associated with only minimally elevated risks for most conditions.

Lmao I was right. This is not "low" consumption. That's like, above average.
