7 Sneaky Signs You Drink Too Much
By Holly C. Corbett March 22, 2018
 

You rarely turn down wine with dinner, not to mention that second (or third) cocktail at happy hour—but that doesn't make you a binge drinker, does it? It depends, but according to a 2015 report by the National Institutes of Health, an exploding number of Americans are in the drinking danger zone. According to the report, published in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, nearly one-third of American adults at some point in their life have an Alcohol Abuse Disorder, and only 20% seek treatment.

Drunk posting on The Briefing Room site  should be one of those signs.

LOL. Prevention Mag is still around? The Communist shithole known as Rodale is going out of business. Maybe they should worry more about business models that work than what people are doing on their own time.

I don't know about Rodale being communist or about its current financial health, but in its defense, Prevention pointed me to an effective treatment for IBS.  I was diagnosed decades ago, and back then, the bland diet was the common treatment for almost every digestive ailment. Prevention had an article about switching to a high fiber diet and also about lactose intolerance.  Tried the high fiber diet and cut consumption of dairy products.  Haven't had a major flare-up for years.
