  • Most underage youth who drink do so to the point of intoxication, that is, they binge drink (defined as having five or more drinks in a row), typically on multiple occasions.
  • A recovering alcoholic may never safely drink again, but can lead a normal, productive life as long as he or she maintains a state of total abstinence.
  • The effects of alcohol appear within 10 minutes and peak at about 40 to 60 minutes. Alcohol stays in the bloodstream until the liver can break it down. If alcohol is consumed faster than it can be broken down by the liver, the blood alcohol concentration level rises.
  • Products generated in the body during alcohol metabolism are more toxic than alcohol itself.
