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.

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 :shrug:

The definition of "binge" is to do more at one time than is considered healthy. What they are trying to explain to you is having 1 drink a night for for nights is healthier than 4 or more in one night. In a nutshell, alcohol is a poison and drinking it puts an immediate strain on your pancreas and liver. They body can handle it safer in small amounts than it can when you overload it all at once.

What some call "binge drinking"... I call a typical evening. All in the eyes of the imbiber I suppose.

Binge drinking is waking up the next morning in the yard of some place you have no idea where it is with a dog pissing in your face.

I hate when that happens.
But it does wake you up.
