(CNN) -- Concerns about alcohol abuse have been making headlines this week.
First, the Indian state of Rajasthan reportedly announced it would shut down 800 alcohol shops. Then, in Britain, chief medical officer Liam Donaldson recommended Thursday that anyone 15 years old and younger avoid alcohol completely.
It's no wonder people are worried.
A recent survey of alcoholism studies in the Lancet suggests that men have more than a 20 percent lifetime risk of developing alcohol-use disorders, while women's risk is 8 to 10 percent.

A woman who drinks two glasses of wine every day is at risk for developing liver trouble, a doctor says.
