Episode Overview
- Non-alcoholic drinks defined by FDA as <0.5% alcohol by volume
- Growth in sales of non-alcoholic beverages in the US
- Research conducted on US adults consuming alcohol
- Association between non-alcoholic beverage and alcohol consumption
- Need for further research on the impact of non-alcoholic drinks
I would encourage people to approach the drinks with caution, be reflective about how is this impacting your desire for alcohol and your consumption in that same night or across the week, and just be kind of curious about the relation between your non-alcoholic beverage use and your alcohol use.
Ever wondered how non-alcoholic drinks like zero-percent beers and mocktails fit into the lives of those who drink alcohol? In this episode of 'Addiction Audio', Dr. Merve Mollaahmetoglu chats with Dr. Molly Bowdring about her recent research on this very topic. Using survey data, Molly explores various patterns of non-alcoholic beverage use, from slowing down alcohol consumption to alternating drinking days or even incorporating them into recovery plans.
Molly and Merve dive into the sometimes surprising differences between what people think non-alcoholic drinks do for their alcohol habits and what actually happens. Are you someone who reaches for a non-alcoholic beer to curb your alcohol intake? This episode will make you reflect on how these choices impact your overall consumption. The conversation isn't just for researchers; it's for anyone curious about the relationship between non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages.
Molly's insights offer a fresh perspective on how these drinks might be influencing drinking patterns across the US. Tune in for a thoughtful discussion that could change how you view your own drinking habits.
