1 If your flask has not been used for some time, rinse with warm water to remove any residual odours. 2  DO NOT overfill your flask. Leave sufficient space in the neck to fit the stopper.  After filling, always ensure that both the outside cup and stopper are tightly closed.
The 8.4% prevalence of alcohol abuse/dependence estimated by the present study (13.1% for men and 4.1% for women) is above the average value of 6% that Galduroz et al8 (2003) found in a survey performed in 1999.
Research has established that some of the risk for addiction to both drugs and alcohol is inherited. Children of alcoholics are 50 to 60 percent more likely to develop alcohol use disorders than people in the general population (4).Similarly, children of parents who abuse illicit drugs may be 45 to 79 percent more likely to do so themselves than the general public (5â7).This suggests that some of the risk factors for alcohol and other drug use are rooted in genetics, though studies of specific families have not proven a genetic contribution.imilarly, children of parents who abuse illicit drugs may be 45 to 79 percent more likely to do so themselves than the general public (5â7).
