Excessive alcohol consumption and its adverse effects on one's health has been the subject of many studies. A latest research conducted by Sarah Twichell from Boston Children's Hospital, explains how binge drinking in early adulthood can make men more susceptible to the risks of high blood pressure later in life. Surprisingly, the study didn't find the same effect in young women. In fact, when young adult women drank moderately, their risk of high blood pressure was reduced by half.
According to researchers, little is known about the links between alcohol use during adolescence and hypertension, therefore the same was not found to be true in male teenagers. Although the study links alcohol consumption to increased risk of high blood pressure, it does not prove that alcohol was the primary reason for high blood pressure. The study focuses on the fact that people may believe that young men are immune to middle-age diseases like heart problems and hypertension, but these ailments may trigger at a much earlier age in young males who tend to binge drink.Inputs from PTI
