Wine Wednesday, Mom Juice, Liquid Courage–our culture has all sorts of cute catchphrases encouraging people to drink. In fact, excessive drinking seems to be normalized, but unfortunately, it’s also one of the leading preventable causes of death in the U.S., with more than 380 Americans dying every day.
