According to a new study comparing men and women who abuse alcohol, women run a greater risk of liver damage, heart disease, breast cancer, and dying in a fatal car crash than men. "The physical differences between the sexes play a significant role in how their bodies metabolize alcohol. Women have more body fat and less water in their systems than men do, as well as lower levels of an enzyme important in the breakdown of alcohol... [also] when a man and a woman drink the same amount of alcohol, in general, the woman's internal organs will be exposed to more alcohol than the man's." [LiveScience]
