New U.S. survey looks at drinking habits, hangovers, and holiday impact
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 'Tis the season to drink and be merry, according to a new consumer of 1,339 Americans over age 21, conducted by Myrkl earlier this month. More than half of Americans drink more during the holiday season, with one in three women experiencing a hangover after just ½ drinks, versus 23% of men. Women are also 10 points more likely than men to feel the effects of a hangover after 3-4 drinks (33% vs. 23%).

U.S. survey conducted by Myrkl looks at drinking habits, hangovers, and holiday impact
With hangovers, a common holiday occurrence, the most common symptoms are headache (44%), dehydration (39%), fatigue (29%), and nausea (24%). The trending "hangxiety" symptom, increased anxiety after a night of drinking, impacts only 14% of people. The effects are so impactful that ¼ of Americans would give up social media, 20% would give up caffeine, and 5% would give up their spouse to never have to experience another hangover.
"While we're seeing a shift in drinking culture, with people more conscious of their intake and seeking to curb usage, it doesn't change the fact that any amount of alcohol can negatively impact a person's daily life," said Frederic Fernandez, co-owner and board member of de Faire Medical. "The study shows that Americans, even drinking one to two drinks, are dealing with the negative effects that alcohol consumption brings."
Productivity takes a dive for more than half of respondents, with 45% reporting skipping workouts, nearly 40% hunkering down in their home for the day, and one in five skipping work.
During the holidays, 67% of Americans enjoy holiday parties with family and friends, 46% enjoy drinks with friends and family during the holidays and 24% enjoy company/work holiday parties. Work parties also lead to too much drinking for one in three of Americans, with the same amount saying hangovers are the worst part of work events.
Nearly 40% of Americans say they would go out and socialize more if they could prevent being hungover after - and half just want a miracle pill to prevent them altogether.
