Alcoholism
Every day in the United States, six people die from alcohol poisoning. The CDC (Center for Disease Control) estimates that alcohol dependence is a contributing factor in approximately 30% of these deaths. Despite the popularly held perception, alcoholics may not be able to “hold their booze”- in fact, almost a third of lethal intoxication incidents strike those with an identifiable tolerance to alcohol.
The Department of Health and Human Services defines moderate drinking as two drinks or less per day for men, and one drink or less per day for women. Meanwhile, the NIAAA (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism) characterizes binge drinking as the consumption of four or five alcoholic beverages in a span of two hours.
