Abstract
Julie Mudd investigated the effect of alcohol consumption on chronic disease management. She found that alcohol consumption is challenging for both the patients and their health practitioners, resulting in poorer outcomes and decreased health engagement. GPs will use this information to better manage alcohol use in patients with chronic disease.
