See this data from a Gallup survey, illustrating the very stark trend of young people 18-34\u00a0 dropping in alcohol consumption by 13 percentage points in the 20-year period between 2001-04 to 2021-2024.<\/p>\n<p>Stark, too, that older people 55+ increased their alcohol consumption in the two decades.<\/p>\n<p>Escoffier discusses the growing beverage trends of non-alcoholic versions of traditional libations like \u201cNA\u201d (non-alcoholic beer, wine, and liquor. Underlying this trend is the demographic that more than 2 in 5 Americans between 18 and 34 abstain from alcohol totally, turning to the alternatives and fueling innovative trends in functional beverages \u2014 thought of as \u201calcohol adjacent.\u201d Some of these embed mood-enhancing or wellness-focused ingredients such as CBD\/THC and nootropics \u2014 with the segment growing double digits in each of the past two years. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-69223\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healthpopuli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Escoffier-wellness-Zogby-most-Americans-say-US-should-fund-behavioral-research-for-health-risks-for-HP-Hot-Points-1024x699.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"781\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.healthpopuli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Escoffier-wellness-Zogby-most-Americans-say-US-should-fund-behavioral-research-for-health-risks-for-HP-Hot-Points-1024x699.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.healthpopuli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Escoffier-wellness-Zogby-most-Americans-say-US-should-fund-behavioral-research-for-health-risks-for-HP-Hot-Points-300x205.png 300w, https:\/\/www.healthpopuli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Escoffier-wellness-Zogby-most-Americans-say-US-should-fund-behavioral-research-for-health-risks-for-HP-Hot-Points-768x524.png 768w, https:\/\/www.healthpopuli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Escoffier-wellness-Zogby-most-Americans-say-US-should-fund-behavioral-research-for-health-risks-for-HP-Hot-Points.png 1055w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 781px) 100vw, 781px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Health Populi\u2019s Hot Points:\u00a0<\/strong> \u00a0<\/em>Alcohol consumption is one of the original social determinants of health noted in the earliest definitions of SDoH \u2014 from Dr. Tony Iton doing research in Alameda County in the 1980s and onward.<\/p>\n<p>Alcohol consumption is one of the most important modifiable behaviors for health improvement, among many behavior changes people can make to benefit their overall well-being.<\/p>\n<p>So it is fascinating and encouraging to re-visit the Research!America data point from the 2024 survey that 75% of Americans say the U.S. should fund behavioral research. That overall number included 86% of Democrat voters, 66% of Republicans, and 72% of Independents.<\/p>\n<p>This is striking as I write this post in early June 2025 as the current administration has cut and has further plans to reduce the funding of research for public health, medicine, and basic sciences.<\/p>\n<p>This week I\u2019ve covered three different research reports on U.S. consumers\u2019 growing interest, spending and actions to study, shop for, and spend hard-earned dollars on food as inputs into personal and family health and well-being. To continue to grow these food-as-medicine muscles, health citizens will be keen to access the latest, best research and evidence available to inform their choices and lifestyles.<\/p>\n<p>Note the bottom line statement on the last graphic, which comes from the Research!America report: \u201cImproving quality of life and lowering health care costs are the most persuasive reasons to increase support for behavioral research.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is a concurrence across party IDs in the U.S. We\u2019ll see more on this demand side through 2025 as patients-as-health-consumers and Chief Household Officers work hard to manage household budgets and fiscal\/financial health. This is mainstream, kitchen table home economics that will persist \u2014 I anticipate both at home and at polling places come mid-terms in America in November 2026, as more people will be voting with health in mind, wallets in hand, and health citizenship on the ballot.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s been a full week\u2019s coverage on food-as-medicine and food as a driver of health in America this week on the Health Populi blog.
