  • Nearly three times as many men (9.8 million) than women (3.9 million) abuse alcohol or are alcohol-dependent in the United States.
  • Girls who begin dieting before the age of 12 have a much greater likelihood of engaging in alcohol misuse later in their lives.
  • Alcoholics, do not process alcohol as effectively as non-alcoholics. The alcoholic�'s liver converts alcohol into acetaldehyde at twice the normal rate. At the same time, their ability to convert acetaldehyde into acetic acid is much slower than non-alcoholics. Consequently, the higher concentrations of acetaldehyde can damage liver cells, cause inflammation and exhaust the body�'s immune system. The liver�'s ability to absorb nutrients is compromised. Unfortunately, the damage is not restricted to the liver. An abundance of acetaldehyde will eventually enter the bloodstream which can affect other organs in the body such as the heart or pancreas. It can also affect the brain. The brain, like most body organs, is vulnerable to injury from alcohol consumption. Acetaldehyde can block proper brain function such as the firing of neurotransmitters which affect one�'s mood, memory, and behavior.
  • Because CIDs (Caffeinated Alcoholic Beverages) may have higher alcohol content than beer, some states (e.g., Montana) have classified CIDs as liquor, thereby limiting the locations where these beverages can be sold.
