Many experts in genetics estimate that over 50% of the causes of alcohol dependence are due to genes that lead to an increased "vulnerability" to alcoholism. A large majority of these geneticists believe that these particular genes affect some physiological component of the brain that is associated with the production of "impaired control," the hallmark of alcohol dependence.
Approximately 17% of men and about 8% of women will meet criteria for alcohol dependence at some point in their lives.
Excessive alcohol consumption contributes to more than 4,600 deaths among underage youth, that is, persons less than 21 years of age, in the United States each year.
