A new study finds evidence of a troubling connection between sports gambling and risky alcohol consumption. The findings, published in JAMA Network Open, suggest that individuals who bet on sports, esports, and daily fantasy sports are significantly more likely to engage in binge drinking compared to those who do not gamble or who gamble on other activities.

A recent study has shed light on a concerning trend among sports bettors in the United States: a higher likelihood of binge drinking compared to non-gamblers or those who do not wager on sports.

Last week, an academic paper co-authored by Joshua Grubbs of the University of New Mexico and Shane Kraus of 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ confirmed what many have suspected: Those who engage in sports betting are about twice as likely to binge drink than other types of gamblers and people who don’t wager at all.

A new study out of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, shows a clear link between sports betting and alcohol use. "It's hidden. Often people go 8 to 10 years before they get help," said Dr. Shane Kraus, a professor of psychology, and the Director of the addictions lab at 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ.

Many sports bettors aren’t only risking money when they gamble, but possibly their health, too. That’s according to new research conducted by the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ) in conjunction with the University of New Mexico.

It turns out that money isn't the only thing sports gamblers are risking. According to a new study, bettors who wager on sporting events, esports, and daily fantasy sports are much more likely than other individuals to binge drink.
