Studies show that children of alcoholic parents are at greater risk than other children of becoming alcoholics.
How alcohol affects an individual is most often determined by their blood alcohol level (BAC); things that affect a person's BAC may include how strong the concentration of alcohol that they consume is, the rate of consumption, the amount of alcohol that is ingested, and how empty their stomach is when they are drinking.
Even though a mother may not regularly abuse alcohol, an unborn fetus may not be spared the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure.
A broad range of alcohol consumption patterns, from occasional hazardous drinking to daily heavy drinking, creates significant public health and safety problems in nearly all countries. One of the key characteristics of the hazardous pattern of drinking is the presence of heavy drinking occasions, defined as consumptions of 60 or more grams of pure alcohol.
