Alcohol robs your brain cells of water and glucose (the brain's food), which is why you experience hangover symptoms such as headache, dehydration, and the shakes the day after a night of heavy drinking.
318 binge drinking deaths took place in the US in 1995, and most of the people who died in these alcohol poisoning cases were from the age group of 15-24 years.
Adolescents are more likely than adults to take part in activities when they are too impaired to perform them competently, such as driving, and also are more likely to consume alcohol to the point of coma.
