This podcast is our first episode on the facts behind alcohol and alcoholism.
We learn that:
- One could consider alcoholism an epidemic if we count a minimum of 14 million adults as having the disease.
- And since it does not travel alone, those 14 million adults affect another 5 people each so 70 million are in one way or another affected.
- The myth that we can protect our young people from the risks of becoming alcoholics by introducing them to drink early in life is one of the most dangerous myths out there. The facts speak totally otherwise.
- The deadly effects of alcoholism are under-reported. Death certificates may say cirrhosis of the liver but do not mention that a lifetime of drinking was the real cause of death.
- Alcohol is still a socially acceptable drug and being a drunk somehow carries less of a stigma than being an addict, even though one is addicted to alcohol.
