Alcohol poisoning kills 6 a day, mostly middle-aged men, CDC says | Fox News

Alcohol poisoning kills 6 a day, mostly middle-aged men, CDC says | Fox News: To the surprise of even health officials, it turns out that most deaths from drinking too much involve middle-aged adults - not teens or college kids.

A report Tuesday from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found six Americans die each day from alcohol poisoning. CDC officials said three-quarters of those deaths are adults ages 35 to 64, and most are men. CDC officials said they thought more would be younger.
