Tim maintains that the misinformation that moderate drinking can be good for you has been responsible for millions of deaths worldwide and we agreed the irony of the fact that alcohol kills far more people than covid did.
Ever wondered about the true risks of that glass of wine or pint of beer? In this episode of Tribe Sober, host Janet Gourand sits down with Professor Tim Stockwell, a Senior Scientist at the Canadian Institute for Substance Use Research. Tim is on a mission to reveal the often-overlooked link between alcohol and cancer. Despite facing fierce opposition from the liquor industry, he's dedicated to spreading this vital information.
Tim explains that even moderate drinking can lead to cancer, a fact that remains largely unknown to the public. They discuss how governments have a role in educating citizens about these health risks. Tim shares his frustration with policies that have sometimes made alcohol more accessible, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, when some regions deemed it an 'essential item' and even reduced its price. The conversation also touches on the effectiveness of warning labels and minimum pricing policies.
Tim argues for the need to create good-tasting low-alcohol alternatives to meet consumer demands without compromising health. He believes that, much like cigarettes, alcohol could eventually face stricter regulations and greater public awareness about its dangers. If you're curious about the real impact of alcohol on your health and what can be done to mitigate these risks, this episode is a must-listen. Tim's insights are eye-opening and could change how you view your next drink.
