ely young ages."

The NHS data revealed that admission to hospital for alcoholic liver disease has reached record level of 35,400 in 2004-2005. The number of deaths due to the same condition has risen by 37% in the past decade. The alcoholic poisoning admissions has risen from 13,600 to 21,700 during the same period.

Chris Cook, an addiction expert based at Durham University, said, "Death rates are linked to the increase in consumption, which needs to be addressed with more stringent measures, such as alcohol taxes, to control drinking. "

The Department of Health said: "We are concerned about the number of alcohol-related deaths and are committed to tackling this problem. We are currently introducing measures set out in the Alcohol Harm Reduction Strategy for England, which will help reduce alcohol related deaths."
