There is a reason why the legal age of drinking alcohol in the United States is 21. If a person waits to consume alcohol until the age of 21 years of age or older, he or she just has 7% chance of becoming an alcoholic compared to that of a person who begins underage drinking at or before the age of 15. “Youth who start drinking before age 15 years are six times more likely to develop a alcohol dependence or abuse.” (CDC.gov). So, why do teenagers continue to break the law and consume alcohol

Has your 13-year old had a beer lately? If asked, most parents would say that their 13-year old child has never even tried alcohol. Typically, parents tend to think teens drink like mom and dad, with a beer or two after work or a glass of wine with dinner. The truth is, when teens drink, they are mainly drinking to get drunk. The bottom line is that today’s parents are failing to understand the epidemic of teen drinking and its serious side effects. The use and abuse of alcohol by teens is on the

The History of Fermentation It is impossible to set a date as to the first time fermentation was performed. It is possible, however, to guess, and this guess is roughly 8,000 years ago. Wine has been written about for centuries, in the Greek and Roman myths and scriptures. The Greek god of wine, Dionysius, was in charge of the fermentation atop Mount Olympus.
