Binge Drinking Rampant Among Americans




FRIDAY, March 16, 2018 (HealthDay News) -- Americans are on a binge drinking binge.

More than 17 billion binge drinks were consumed by American adults in 2015, a new federal government study shows. That works out to an average of 470 drinks per binge drinker.

The study also found that 1 in 6 (37 million) American adults binge drink about once a week and down an average of seven drinks per binge.

"This study shows that binge drinkers are consuming a huge number of drinks per year, greatly increasing their chances of harming themselves and others," said study co-author Dr. Robert Brewer, lead researcher in the alcohol program at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
