- Because alcohol is a depressant in the body, high doses of the drug can reduce cell activity; when alcohol is removed from the cells, they recover in a way that produces a change toward stimulation. The body's attempt to produce "normalcy" often leads to over-stimulation, which is known as withdrawal ;thus, binge drinking often leads to a "hangover" (headache, increased stomach acidity, early morning awakening, etc.), and long -term heavy drinking often leads to the "shakes", delirium (hallucinations), and in some instances, seizures.
- Because of the oversized drinks that are so commonly being served across the U.S. so establishments can charge a higher price and make more money, many people ordering two of these, may actually be consuming three or four alcoholic drinks.
- An estimated 33% of parents say that alcohol companies are not doing enough to limit the amount of alcohol advertising that teens see.
- Drinking alcohol while taking certain medications can cause problems; according to a recent government study, there are more than 150 medications that should not be mixed with alcohol.
