| Publication name: | Alcohol and Ageing |
| Description: | This report examines the drinking patterns of the present “baby boomer”
generation (the large population cohort born between 1945 and 1965) and looks at the health implications of higher than recommended drinking in old age. Instead of concentrating on people with alcohol problems due to heavy drinking, it looks at the future health implications of a larger older population that contains a significant proportion of people who drink more than the recommended level of alcohol. |
