ICAP Health Briefings

ICAP Health Briefings cover the effects of alcohol consumption on health.  They offer an overview of the relationship between drinking patterns and health outcomes, compile the key literature, and provide the reader with an extensive bibliography that refers to original research on each topic.  The Briefings attempt to present the balance of the available evidence.  They have been peer reviewed by external experts and do not necessarily reflect the views of ICAP or its sponsoring companies.
