Here's why you are better drinker at 20 than 30

Unlike the twenty-somethings, people in the age group of 30-50 years are not able to deal with the effects of heavy drinking.
It is so because as the body gets older it loses muscle and piles on fat, which increases the effects of alcohol.
"As a person gets older, less body water and more fat in the system means alcohol stays in the blood stream for longer, which helps explain why people often experience the effects of heavy drinking more than they might have done if younger,” The Sun quoted a spokesman for Alcohol Concern, as saying.
Now, a YouGov poll has substantiated this fact.
The poll found that almost half of 30 to 50-year-olds admitted to sometimes drinking too much and didn't know when to stop.
The poll also revealed that one in three of respondents said that drinking too much had ruined a night on the town at least once in the last year and 44 per cent said that they did not stay within the recommended limit.
General Practitioner Dr Sarah Jarvis said over-30s should be careful during the holiday season.
"You often hear people saying they feel worse after drinking the older they get — as you age, the body isn't as good at dealing with alcohol,” she said.
"To help you stick to your limits, you might want to try agreeing a limit with a friend, following one alcoholic drink with a soft drink, or taking time out from drinking for another activity,” she added.

Want SRK at your wedding? Spare Rs 1 cr for him

Want your favourite celebrity to shake hands with guests, dance or sing at your wedding? All you need to do is to burn a hole in the pocket - that is, to shell out anything up to Rs 1 crore.
Shah Rukh Khan may not agree to do a jig, but he might happily be a guest for Rs 10 crore. Bollywood actors and item girls like Celina Jaitley, Malaika Arora Khan, Dia Mirza, Isha Koppikar and Rakhi Sawant charge nearly Rs 10 lakh each to perform.
Koena Mitra, Shefali Zariwala, Priti Jhangiyani, Payal Rohtagi, Neha Kakkar, Sanobar and Mandira Bedi charge between Rs 500,000-Rs 700,000 to perform at marriage ceremonies.
The schedule includes two high-voltage dance performances of eight-and-a-half minutes each.
"It was unheard of even a decade ago. But today it's different because people have more money. Weddings are no longer rituals for them," Rahul Nagpal, senior manager (entertainment) of event management firm Touchwood Entertainment, told IANS.
"It is a chance to stand out among others by calling in Bollywood stars. But a lot depends on the availability of the star," he added.
Singer Sonu Nigam charges Rs 30 lakh and Shaan's tag is nearly Rs 25 lakh. While Kailash Kher charges Rs 15 lakh, Daler Mehendi is ready to entertain guests for Rs 1.2 lakh, Sukhbir charges Rs 8 lakh Mika Rs 5 lakh and Harbhajan Mann Rs 4 lakh. They are in great demand at Punjabi weddings.
Praneeta, operations head of wedding planner Luxury Weddings, said: "Apart from making weddings distinctive, people also want to reflect their personality by inviting actors to their weddings."
Fifty percent of her firm's clients demand celebrities at their weddings every year. The demand also depends on the region a customer belongs to.
"The demand is more in north Indian cities like Delhi, Chandigarh and Ludhiana. Simply because these cities are away from tinsel town, stars are more sought-after. They also have more purchasing power," said Praneeta.
The mood of the wedding - subtle or elaborate - also dictates which celebrity will grace the occasion
