For an honest an answer, I go by the "everything in moderation" idea...But on a serious note....for men no more than 21 alcohol units of wine in a week, women no more than 14....A small standard glass of wine has roughly counts as about 1 and half units.

i.e. a 500ml bottle of 5% beer = 25ml pure alcohol = 2.5 units. And so on.
The question's been asked before, but is there any sound evidential basis for the recommended limits?
