Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, binge drinking is defined as a pattern of drinking that brings blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels to 0.08g/dL. For women, this typically occurs after consuming 4 or more drinks in about 2 hours. In this scenario, Leah is consuming 6 beers (which is likely more than 4 drinks, depending on the alcohol content of the beer) in a 2-hour span, therefore she is considered a binge drinker.
