Americans could be urged by officials to drink no more than two beers a week as part of strict new alcohol guidelines.

Biden’s health czar told DailyMail.com the USDA could revise its alcohol advice to match Canada’s, where people are advised to have just two drinks per week.

Dr George Koob — who admits enjoying a couple of glasses of Chardonnay a week — said he was watching Canada’s ‘big experiment’ with interest.

‘If there’s health benefits, I think people will start to re-evaluate where we’re at [in the US],’ he told DailyMail.com.

Current US recommendations say women can have up to one bottle of beer, small glass of wine or shot of spirit a day while men can have two.

But those guidelines are up for review in 2025.

Per the US guidelines, a drink is defined as containing 0.6 fluid ounces of alcohol, equivalent to one beer, one glass of wine at 12 percent alcohol or one shot.

Asked in what direction the guidelines could change, Dr George Koob, the director for the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), said: ‘I mean, they’re not going to go up, I’m pretty sure.’
