Binge Drinking Way Up!

The Center for Disease Control recently reported that a staggering one in six American adults binge drink. Binge drinking is more common in young adults ages 18-34. This trend of 38 million binge-drinking adults is alarming because approximately 40,000 to 80,000 deaths in the U.S. per year are associated with drinking too much. Some unintended consequences of binge drinking are impaired driving, accidents and injuries, risky sexual activity and interpersonal violence.
