Have you ever thought of yourself as a ‘binge drinker?’ If you’ve ever consumed more than three pints in one sitting, you are, according to the HSE's low-risk alcohol guidelines.

The HSE advises no more than 17 standard drinks a week for men, or 11 for women, with at least two alcohol-free days per week.
