According to a study that was conducted by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, heavy drinking by college students is prevalent and, among some students, quite frequent; more than 80% of college students reported consuming alcohol in the past year, with more than 40% reporting at least one episode of binge drinking in the previous 2 weeks.
Children with FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome) have an average IQ of less than 70.
Heavy alcohol consumption (more than six drinks per day) has been linked to heart disease in HIV-infected people. Therefore, stopping or cutting down on their alcohol consumption may help to reduce the risk of heart disease.
