All young people aged under 18 have been advised not to drink alcohol in new guidelines issued by the Danish Health Authority.
The advice is part of new general Danish recommendations on alcohol consumption, the health authority said in a statement.
The new recommendation for under-18s not to drink alcohol at all is based on new knowledge of the detrimental effect on the development of the brain caused by alcohol in young people, the Danish Health Authority said.
