A new study featured in Science Daily reveals that women between the ages of 18 and 65 who consume an average of more than one alcoholic drink daily face an increased risk of heart disease. Specifically, women who have one drink per day have a 51% higher likelihood of developing heart disease compared to lighter drinkers.

The study also underscores a stark warning for women who binge drink, defined as consuming three or more drinks in a day; these individuals are 68% more likely to experience heart disease. While male binge drinkers, consuming four or more drinks daily, also face a heightened risk of 33%, the study highlights that the impact is more pronounced in women.
