Alcohol is made as plant sugars in fruits come into contact with a fungus called yeast and they begin to ferment; as they rot, they will excrete a toxic substance called ethanol or ethyl alcohol--or simply alcohol. In the fermentation process, the yeast continues to feed on the plant sugars, thus the alcohol concentration levels rise; once these levels get closer to 14 percent, the yeast dies, quite literally, of alcohol poisoning.
In the United States, FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome) is the third most common cause of mental retardation.
Individuals with co-occurring alcohol and other drug use disorders are more likely to have more severe dependence-related problems than those without combined disorders.
As of 1996, six million children under the age of 18 lived with a parent who was alcohol dependant.
