The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $178,805 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to The Leland Stanford Junior University. The grant will fund research to examine the potential utility and risks of non-alcoholic beverages, such as non-alcoholic beers and wines, in reducing alcohol use among individuals with alcohol use disorders (AUD) and social drinkers. The two-phase K99/R00 study will use ecological momentary assessments to evaluate the relationship between non-alcoholic beverage consumption and actual alcohol use in these populations. The research aims to provide insight into whether non-alcoholic beverages can effectively substitute for alcohol or inadvertently stimulate cravings. The findings are intended to inform clinical practice and public health strategies for reducing alcohol misuse.
