Nutritional profiles of chronic alcoholics

Article Abstract:

Three hundred chronic alcoholic and normal subjects participated in a study to determine the correlation between diet, alcohol intake, tobacco use and other alcohol-related diseases. Results show that chronic alcoholics exhibit stronger 'oral behavior' exemplified by eating, drinking and smoking than the reference populaion. The oral behavior served as the basis for classifying the chronic alcoholics into alcohol-related diseases.
