Which country has the highest alcohol consumption in the world

Solving The Global Issue Of Alcoholism While the above-mentioned 15 countries rank highest for alcohol consumption, alcohol consumption has increased dramatically in many countries around the world. Furthermore, these numbers serve only as averages, and don’t represent the true scope of the disease of alcoholism. For example, while the average alcohol consumption per capita in the United States is 9.5 liters, or 2.51 gallons, per year, roughly 10.5% of people 12 and older have an alcohol use disorder (AUD). Compared to a country like Ireland, which is not only ranked 11th in alcohol consumption, but also widely known for its alcohol culture, only 8.5% of the population is estimated to have an AUD. It’s clear that alcohol abuse is a worldwide problem. No matter where someone may reside, they are no less susceptible for an AUD. If you or someone you know is struggling with an alcohol addiction, the time to get help is now.
