0.9 standard drinks The Australian guideline is no more than 10 standard drinks a week, and no more than 4 on any one day.

Where this number comes from

AUSNUT 2023, the food composition database published by Food Standards Australia New Zealand. Food ID 29301002, using a derived serve size. The serve size here is derived rather than published — AUSNUT lists no measure for it.

Energy is converted from kilojoules at 4.184 kJ per calorie, using the value that includes dietary fibre.

One number on its own doesn't tell you much. What matters is how it sits against everything else you have — and which of those is worth changing first.

The habit audit prices your actual habits from this same data, ranks them, and tells you what each one is worth. It takes about three minutes and it's free.
