When most people think of a stroke patient, they often picture someone over the age of 65. But experts say the rate of strokes is increasing among young people and a new study suggests alcohol consumption may have something to do with it.

They found young people who were considered moderate to heavy drinkers were more likely to have a stroke compared to those who were considered light drinkers or didn’t drink alcohol at all.
