Recent studies and surveys have shown that drinking is on the rise for Americans. This seems to be the case across the board without regard to race or gender. In addition, binge drinking has been shown to be on the rise as well.
Binge drinking is defined as consuming five or more alcoholic beverages in a day. In general, one drink is considered the healthy limit for women, while two should be the limit for men.
As your health care provider, whether it’s Cinergy Health or another carrier, can explain, drinking in moderation isn’t considered dangerous; however, drinking to excess is dangerous and can lead to many issues. Limiting your alcohol consumption can actually help to prevent breast cancer and other cancers, while lowering your risk of stroke and more.
