Healio (11/17, Feliciano) reports a systematic review and meta-analysis of 31 studies found that “among adolescents, exposure to digital alcohol marketing correlated with increased odds of recent alcohol use, binge drinking and susceptibility to drink.” Researchers observed that “compared with those not exposed, the young adults and adolescents who encountered alcohol marketing had greater odds of reporting alcohol use within the last 30 days, binge drinking and susceptibility to drink among never users.” The review was published in The Lancet Public Health.
