🍷 Alcohol use doesn't discriminate by age and older adults are often overlooked. πŸ‘€
Here's what the numbers tell us:
πŸ“Š ~65% of adults aged 65+ reported high-risk drinking meaning they exceeded daily guidelines at least weekly in the past year.
πŸ“Š More than 1 in 10 adults aged 65+ currently engage in binge drinking.

As we age, our bodies process alcohol differently, and drinking can interact with medications and worsen chronic health conditions. Yet conversations about alcohol use often skip this generation entirely. πŸ’¬

It's time to change that. βœ”οΈ Check in on the older adults in your life βœ”οΈ Talk openly without judgment βœ”οΈ Know that it's never too late to make a healthier choice
Aging well includes drinking wisely. πŸ’™
