Week two of the summer series tackles the questions you've been asking the most about what moderation actually looks like day to day: how much you can actually drink and still call it moderate, whether you need to track every drink, whether low, no and light drinks help or hinder, and whether a full break from alcohol is the right place to start.

By the end of this episode you'll know:

• How much alcohol actually counts as moderate, and why the guidelines aren't as clear-cut as they sound
• What successful moderation really looks like
• Whether you need to count your drinks, and when it's okay to stop

• The pros and cons of taking a full break from alcohol first
