How bad is rum for me? by Connie b. Dellobuono
Answer by Connie b. Dellobuono:
Percentage of alcohol in RUM: 40%
It is named for its alcohol proof level of 151, that is, 75.5% alcohol by volume. This is much higher than typical rum at 35%–40%. Bacardi 151 has been sold in the US since at least 1981.
There are 7 more deadly disease from over consumption of alcohol aside from liver cancer. They are cancer, cardio vascular disease (CVD, accounts for 50% of death worldwide), dementia (neuro), gout, liver and organ failure.
