Looks like he's had enough
The National Institute of Public Health has issued a new warning against alcohol abuse. Statistics gathered over the year by the institute show that 18 percent of Swedish men and ten percent of the women admit an alcohol consumption that puts them in a risk zone.
According to the report a growing number of young people are regular drinkers. Every third young man consumes alcoholic beverages to an extent that can cause health problems. The figures for young women are only slightly lower.
