  • Minimum Legal Drinking Age Saves Lives
    Minimum Legal Drinking Age Saves Lives The Policy After Prohibition, nearly every state designated 21 as the minimum legal drinking age (MLDA). In the 1970s, 29 states lowered their drinking age to 18, 19 or 20, which led to increases in alcohol sales and consumption, as well as alcohol- related traffic injuries and fatalities, among youth.1 By 1983, 16 states raised their MLDA back to 21 to address the increased drinking and driving traffic fatalities among youth. In 1984, the federal government enacted the Uniform Drinking Age Act, which reduced federal transportation funds for those states that did not raise their MLDA to 21. By 1988, all states had set the minimum legal drinking age at 21.2 The goal of the MLDA is to curb youth drinking and reduce its related problems, especially traffic injuries and deaths.3 l Alcohol is the number one drug of choice among America’s youth.4, 5, 6 Every day in the U.S., 7,000 youth under age 16 have their first drink of alcohol.7 l More than 4,300 youth under age 21 in the U.S. die each year as a result of alcohol-related injuries, shortening their lives by an average of 60 years; 38% of those deaths involve car accidents, 32% result from homicides, and about 6% (300 deaths) are suicides.5 l The highest prevalence of alcohol dependence among U.S. drinkers is people 18-20 years old.4 l Nearly 2,500 young people 12-14 years old initiated alcohol use each day in 2010.5 l A stunning 25.9% of underage drinkers meet the clinical criteria for alcohol abuse or dependence, compared to 9.6% of adult drinkers.8 l Countries with lower MLDA have binge drinking9 rates for youth 15-16 years more than double the U.S.

  • Biochemical Perspective of Alcohol Prohibition in Islam and Implications on Legal Alcohol Content of Drinks in Islamic Countries
    BIOCHEMICAL PERSPECTIVE OF ALCOHOL PROHIBITION IN ISLAM AND IMPLICATIONS ON LEGAL ALCOHOL CONTENT OF DRINKS IN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES Ahmad Houri Ali Safadi Natural Science Department, Lebanese American University. Chouran, Beirut 1102 2801. Lebanon. Email: [email protected] Abstract: An analysis of the concepts of intoxication in blood and the required amount of alcohol to reach that level was analyzed from physiological and religious perspectives. Exact value of potentially allowed alcohol concentration was determined. The results indicate a BAC of 0.05% (w/v) as a set level for intoxication. The determined pure alcohol amount required to reach this level was 27 g (for a 70 kg female) at least. Accordingly, the determined allowed alcohol concentration is 0.45% (w/v) for what would be considered non- intoxicating. This was compared to published results regarding the reported alcohol content of various foods and drinks. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to allow for variation in the considered BAC and the corresponding alcohol concentration in drinks. An analysis of alcohol content in various cooked foods showed an interesting spread in the alcohol content. A review of set legal limits in some Islamic countries is recommended. Keywords: Intoxication, BAC, alcohol concentration, drink, food, sensitivity analysis.

  • Foundations of the Temperance Movement and the Road to Prohibition
    Foundations of the Temperance Movement and the Road to Prohibition The roots of America’s Temperance Movement can be traced back to the early 19th century. By the 1820s the average American consumed the equivalent of 7 gallons of pure alcohol per year. Exactly how much is 7 gallons of pure alcohol? Let’s assume that only beer is being consumed, and that this beer has an alcohol content of 5%. The average drinker would have to consume 140 gallons of beer each year to reach this amount. That’s nearly 2.7 gallons a week! These numbers continued to rise throughout the 19th century – by 1890, the amount of alcohol consumed in America had increased a further 23 times. Why did Americans consume such a high quantity of alcohol, and why did numbers keep rising? One of the reasons was insufficient access to clean drinking water. Beer is brewed at high temperatures, which pasteurizes the drink and removes contaminants. Liquors (such as rum and whisky) are distilled and very strong, which also means that microbes cannot survive. Alcoholic beverages were known to be much safer to drink because they didn’t contain microbes and bacteria. The fact that so many Americans viewed alcoholic drinks as safe alternatives to all-to-often dodgy water supplies was compounded by the high number of saloons that were established throughout the country. These saloons, which were often operated by first generation Americans and financed by large breweries, sold their drinks at very low prices. Alcoholic beverages were said to be safer than water and cheaper than tea! Many Americans also took to brewing and fermenting their own alcohol; hard cider was especially popular.
