use problems and may also derive a health benefit For others use of alcohol will increase their risk for alcohol
problems. Defining precisely who at risk for alcohol problems and assessing the risk versus the benefit of
alcohol use are important to designing effective intervention to reduce alcohol problems and providing accurate
public health information.
•Overall, 5.1% of the global burden of disease and injury is attributed to alcohol, as measured in disability
adjusted life year(DALYs).Alcohol consumption causes death and disability relatively early in life, In the age
group 20-39 years approximately 13.5% of the total death are alcohol attributable.(WHO,2018)
•The alcohol consumption is causal factor and injury conditions. Drinking alcohol is associated with a risk of
developing health problems such as mental and behavioral disorders including alcohol dependence major non

people at kigamboni district in later life who were asked to talk about alcohol and health oriented strongly towards the
opposed identifies of normal or problematic drinker. In the data from the interview could be seen to negotiate consensual

which reviewed in the literature review. Example the study which was conducted in Kenya showed that about 66.6% were
alcohol users . The study shows there is the increase in number of adults who use alcohol.
 RECOMMENDATIONS

•The adult people should find other ways of stress relieving rather than use of alcohol. This can help to reduce
the cost which can be used to buy local beer.
•Adult people living at RHTI should engage in sports, games and economic activities as the way of stress
relieving rather than alcohol use. Also health education should be provided on the risk factors that can occur due
to alcohol consumption.
•The use of local beer may carry risks in terms of quality and risks of contamination, therefore further studies
should be carried out to assess for the local beer for contaminants and strength of alcohol and to take
appropriate action based on the findings.
 CONCLUSION
•The trend of abusive alcohol consumption increases in both genders .Data endorse the need for national
public policies aiming to prevent the abusive consumption and health education should be conducted on the
risk of alcohol consumption.
•In this study found that most of adult people living at kigamboni district use local beer for the reason of stress
relief this led to the increase in number of adult people to alcohol consumption.
•Also, it was found that adult people use local beer more than one liter which cost a total of 1500 shillings per
day which can lead to the poor living condition to their families.
•There is still a gap in the level of knowledge to adult people living at kigamboni district because most adult
people who are alcohol users are not aware on the risks of alcohol use.
