Study: Alcohol Abstainers at Higher Risk of Depression

A study of 38,000 Norwegians suggests a surprising benefit of alcohol for people who drink: an apparently lower risk of depression than people who abstain completely. But if alcohol can lead to depression, does that mean abstaining from alcohol will make you happier? A new study suggests that the opposite actually tends to be true.

Dietitians of Canada

Tip of the Day If you drink alcohol, limit your intake to one serving a day. Serving sizes are one glass of wine (150mL/5oz), a bottle of beer (350mL/12oz) or shot of spirits (50mL/1 1/2 oz). Getting adequate intakes of folate is especially important for women who may become pregnant. Women of childbearing age or planning to become pregnant should eat plenty of folate-rich foods and take a daily multivitamin or mineral supplement that contains 0.4 mg (400 ug) of folic acid.
