UK: Women Consuming Harmful Amounts of Alcohol

Freitag 8. Mai 2009 von htm

„Binge drinking among women has almost doubled since 1998, in a rapid narrowing of an alcohol gender gap that persisted for generations, research today from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation shows. It found that the proportion of women who binge drink rose from 8% in 1998 to 15% in 2006. Over the same period, binge drinking among men increased only slightly, from 22% to 23%. Royal colleges representing the ­physicians and nurses who deal with the ­medical consequences of drinking to excess said last month the government’s public health campaigns were not working.“ (Source: Harvard World Health News,  5/6/09) The Guardian, London, May 6, 2009
