Rehab News:ONS changes alcohol unit guidelines

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) has changed how much of certain drinks make up a unit of alcohol.

Bigger glasses and the increased strength of alcoholic drinks has made the change necessary the ONS said.

The change means that people in the UK are drinking more units that previously thought - average UK consumption for 2005 has been recalculated at 14.3 units a week, up from 10.8 units.

Old assumptions on a unit of alcohol were made in the 1970 when wine and beer generally had a lower alcohol content and servings of wine and spirits were generally smaller.

Under the new guidelines a glass of wine equals two units, while a large can of 6.5 per cent beer will count as three units.

Dr Vivienne Nathanson, of the British Medical Association, told the BBC: "This doesn't come as a surprise. Poor labelling, variations in glass size, and rising alcoholic percentages - especially in wine - all make it hard for people to know how much they're drinking, and to control it."
