About one-third of teenage girls have tried "girlie drinks," or sweet-flavored malt beverages, which they prefer to other forms of alcohol, according to polling commissioned by the American Medical Association. The Chicago-based professional organization for physicians expressed worry in a statement that such drinks, also known as "alcopops," are being marketed by the liquor industry directly to young people. The AMA commissioned two surveys: one of 741 adolescents, ages 12 to 18; the other of 2,768 adults age 21 or older. Results of the surveys can be viewed at www.ama-assn.org ~~~~~~~~ By Sean Cavanagh in the Fair Use guidelines of the 1976 U.S. Copyright Act. info [at] singlearticles.com Powered by CommonSense |
