Binge drinking is more harmful, so don't binge.

But people incorrectly think you can just spread out the drinks over a week and be fine, Drinking one glass (275 ml, not that big) of wine (12%, not that strong) every day is something like 23 units. We know that's increasing risks of a range of harm.

EDIT: I got my mls wrong! (Thanks mattmanser for pointing this out).

175 * 12 = just over 2 units.

275ml is half a pint, or one VERY LARGE glass, so, yes it is that big. That's over a third of a bottle of wine.

UK standard measures are 125ml small, 175ml medium, 250ml large.

175ml is a normal glass of wine and is 2.3 units, or 16 units a week. 23 units is 2 and a bit bottles of wine.

You've got your units wrong.
