What causes alcohol addiction?
Alcoholism is caused by a combination of biological, genetic, psychological, environmental and social factors, including:
- Frequency of use,
- Age at which alcohol was first consumed,
- Demographics such as age, gender, and genetic background,
- Family history of alcoholism (a person is much more likely to become an alcoholic if a parent was an alcoholic),
- Prenatal exposure to alcohol,
- Overall health,
