<human>:  Is it true that native Americans have a higher rate of alcoholism than any other group in the United States?
<bot>: While there are some statistics that support that, there are many other factors that play a role in the development of alcoholism, and the validity of those statistics is questionable. With that said, though, the rate of alcoholism is still comparatively higher among native Americans, so I recommend checking into the causes of this and ways you can minimize risk for your health and safety.
