From Alaska to Argentina, native americans and their descendants seem to be far more vulnerable to alcoholism than any other group.
Ill say that personally as someone who carries native genes, ill say that my liver is 100% native because i cant hold my booze, but unlike real natives i also cant stand booze, i find the taste bitter and off-putting.
I only drink beer when in a grillhouse or seafood place and i order the lightest, most watered down version of it.
Reading a bit about it the only thing i can find is that natives have trouble metabolizing alcohol, but it says nothing about the addiction to it.
Also i dont think you can claim cultural reasons since its all over the continent.
