Men have a larger quantity of dehydrogenase, which allows them to break down the alcohol they take in more quickly.
The rate of current alcohol use among youth ages 12 to 17 was almost sixteen percent during 2007, according to research by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA).
Drinking increases the risk of death from automobile crashes as well as recreational and on-the-job injuries.
Reducing underage drinking will require community-based efforts to monitor the activities of youth and decrease youth access to alcohol. Recent publications by the Surgeon General and the Institute of Medicine outlined many prevention strategies that will require actions on the national, state, and local levels, such as enforcement of minimum legal drinking age laws, national media campaigns targeting youth and adults, increasing alcohol excise taxes, reducing youth exposure to alcohol advertising, and development of comprehensive community-based programs. These efforts will require continued research and evaluation to determine their success and to improve their effectiveness.
