Fewer Americans are raising a glass these days, and it’s not just a passing Dry January fad. A new Gallup poll shows alcohol use has dropped to its lowest point since records began in 1939, with younger adults leading the shift. Health research has steadily chipped away at the notion that moderate drinking might be good for you, and for many, the costs — financial, physical, and social — outweigh the appeal. The result is a slow but steady cultural rethinking of alcohol’s place in daily life.
