Binge drinking a serious problem for women

CDC: Binge drinking a serious problem for women, girls | www.ajc.com

If your mother or sister had four or more alcoholic drinks at the New Year’s Eve party, and imbibes that much or more at every social gathering, they might be binge drinkers. Binge drinking continues to be a worrisome, under-recognized health problem among women and girls, according to a CDC report issued Tuesday.

I gave up diet coke as of the end of last year. I'm thinking I need to take up vodka.

Glad to hear this only effects women.

It's a binge if you do it occasionally. Several a night, no problem!

They say a glass of red wine every night is good for you. What's the big deal if you save up and have them all at once?

I don't know but if that means a binge, then it sounds like you are safer off doing 4 or more everynight to avoide the "binge" drinking syndrom if you ask me
