Alcohol and your health -- Chapter 2. Binge drinking -- Chapter 3. Alcohol and young people. 330 $aAlcohol is the most widely used recreational drug in Australia. Alcohol is so widely used and so socially acceptable that many people frequently consume it to harmful levels. Binge drinking refers to drinking heavily over a short period of time with the intention of becoming intoxicated, resulting in immediate and severe intoxication. The number of young people consuming alcohol at alarmingly high levels has increased significantly in recent years. What are safe drinking levels according to the latest guidelines, and what are the short- and long-term health risks when alcohol consumption goes too far? Alcohol-related risk behaviours are also examined, including drink driving, unprotected sex, violence and injury. This book presents information about the many health and social impacts of excessive alcohol intake and provides tips for promoting responsible drinking choices among young people. When does ?having a drink? become far more than a drop too much? 3 chapters: Alcohol and your health; Binge drinking; Alcohol and young people. 410 0$aIssues in society (Balmain, N.S.W.) ;$vv. 334. 606 $aDrinking of alcoholic beverages$zAustralia 606 $aAlcoholism$zAustralia$xPrevention 606 $aBinge drinking$zAustralia 606 $aYouth$xAlcohol use$zAustralia 615 0$aDrinking of alcoholic beverages 615 0$aAlcoholism$xPrevention. 615 0$aBinge drinking 615 0$aYouth$xAlcohol use 676 $a362.2920994 701 $aHealey$b Justin$01086113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bAuAdUSA 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810417403321 996 $aAlcohol and binge drinking$94002762 997 $aUNINA
