‘No evidence’ low & no drinks act as a gateway to alcohol: Club Soda report

A new report from Club Soda has challenged government concerns that low and no-alcohol drinks encourage young people to drink alcohol, finding no evidence to support this 'gateway theory'. The UK government is currently weighing up whether to restrict sales of alcohol-free beers, wines and spirits to under-18s as part of its health strategy, but the research suggests these products aren't paving the way for underage drinking.
