DID YOU KNOW?? “Binge Drinking” is consuming 4 or more drinks in a row.
DID YOU ALSO KNOW?? Any quantity of alcohol can depress the central nervous system. When someone binge drinks, alcohol slows down the body’s involuntary processes such as: breathing, heartbeat, pulse rate, and gag reflex. Even after a person loses consciousness, alcohol in the stomach continues to enter the bloodstream and circulate. Alcohol Poisoning occurs when a person drinks more alcohol than the body can process. The chances of Alcohol Poisoning greatly increase with binge drinking.
