Most people drink for the stimulant effect, such as a beer or glass of wine to loosen up. But if a person consumes more than the body can handle, he then experiences alcohol's depressant effect. He starts to feel stupid or lose coordination and control.<\/p>\n \n <div class=\"warning-box\">\n <h4 class=\"text-red-700\"><i class=\"fas fa-skull-crossbones mr-2\"><\/i>Alcohol Overdose Effects<\/h4>\n <p>Alcohol overdose causes even more severe depressant effects, inability to feel pain, toxicity where the body vomits the poison and finally unconsciousness, coma or even death. These reactions depend on how much is consumed and how quickly.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n <p>There are different kinds of alcohol. Ethyl alcohol (ethanol), the only alcohol used in beverages, is produced by the fermentation of grains and fruits. Fermenting is a chemical process whereby yeast acts upon certain ingredients in the food, creating alcohol.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n <section class=\"section-card rounded-lg p-8\">\n <h2><i class=\"fas fa-percentage amber-accent mr-3\"><\/i>Alcohol Content<\/h2>\n <p class=\"text-lg mb-6\">Fermented drinks, such as beer and wine, contain from 2 percent alcohol to 20 percent alcohol.

The result of many years of heavy drinking is liver disease\u2014a condition where the liver tissue changes from a dense but effective filter that blood flows through easily, to a mass of scar tissue that can no longer do its job.<\/p>\n \n <p>The liver is vital to the body's survival. This organ eliminates toxins, including alcohol and drugs, so it is the go-to organ to break down these substances after they are consumed. In all, the liver silently performs <strong>five hundred functions<\/strong>, including enabling us to digest food, control infections and absorb vital nutrients. When the liver fails, a person dies.<\/p>\n \n <div class=\"grid grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-2 gap-6\">\n <div class=\"amber-light-bg p-6 rounded-lg\">\n <h4 class=\"amber-accent mb-3\">1. Fatty Liver<\/h4>\n <p>Before a liver reaches the point of being diseased, it may be fatty or inflamed. The first stage of damage is a fatty liver, a build-up of extra fat in the cells. This can cause fatigue, weakness and weight loss. If a person stops drinking at this point, the condition can be reversed.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n <div class=\"bg-red-50 p-6 rounded-lg border-2 border-red-200\">\n <h4 class=\"text-red-700 mb-3\">2. Alcoholic Hepatitis<\/h4>\n <p>Inflammation resulting from drinking is called alcoholic hepatitis. The liver is enlarged and this can cause loss of appetite, vomiting, abdominal pain and jaundice (a condition where the skin or whites of the eyes turn yellow). A little more than a third of heavy drinkers develop this problem. If severe, this condition can result in liver failure and death.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <div class=\"warning-box\">\n <h4 class=\"text-red-700\"><i class=\"fas fa-exclamation-triangle mr-2\"><\/i>Dangerous Drug Interaction<\/h4>\n <p>Mixing alcohol with the over-the-counter pain reliever Tylenol or Panadol causes toxic stress to the liver and the kidneys. For a heavy drinker, just a little more than the recommended amount of these pain relievers for just a few days can result in liver failure and death.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n <h3 class=\"amber-accent\"><i class=\"fas fa-brain mr-2\"><\/i>Lesser-known Physical Effects of Alcohol Abuse<\/h3>\n <p>Just as alcohol damages the liver, it also damages the brain. When the liver begins to deteriorate and is unable to process all the toxins in alcohol, these toxins start to attack the brain.<\/p>\n \n <p>As these chemicals start damaging the brain, the following effects may be experienced:<\/p>\n <ul class=\"list-disc list-inside space-y-2 ml-4\">\n <li>Anxiety and depression<\/li>\n <li>Short concentration span<\/li>\n <li>Sleep disturbances<\/li>\n <li>Pronounced personality changes<\/li>\n <li>Coma<\/li>\n <li>Death<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n \n <h3 class=\"amber-accent\"><i class=\"fas fa-stomach mr-2\"><\/i>Pancreas Damage<\/h3>\n <p>Alcohol also changes the function of the pancreas, a gland that assists digestion. When alcohol consumption is heavy, this causes the pancreas to reduce or stop functioning, which causes problems. The pancreas can become inflamed (swollen and painful), referred to as pancreatitis. This can show up as a sudden attack or it can become chronic.<\/p>\n \n <div class=\"amber-light-bg p-6 rounded-lg\">\n <h4 class=\"amber-accent mb-3\">Pancreatitis can result in:<\/h4>\n <ul class=\"list-disc list-inside space-y-2\">\n <li>Abdominal pain, which can extend up the back<\/li>\n <li>Nausea and vomiting<\/li>\n <li>Fever<\/li>\n <li>Diarrhea<\/li>\n <li>Fast heart rate<\/li>\n <li>Destruction of the pancreas, which can lead to diabetes or death<\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n \n <div class=\"warning-box\">\n <h4 class=\"text-red-700\"><i class=\"fas fa-skull-crossbones mr-2\"><\/i>Universal Poison<\/h4>\n <p><strong>Alcohol is a universal poison.<\/strong> It damages all tissues. No system of the body is spared. Alcohol causes nerve damage, muscle damage, stomach and esophageal ulcers and bleeding, immune-system dysfunction, damage to bones and brain cells.<\/p>\n \n <p class=\"mt-4\">Sexual dysfunction occurs from suppression of pituitary activity and damage to the testes, causing infertility and impotence.<\/p>\n \n <p class=\"mt-4\">Disease occurs from direct toxic effects of alcohol, combined with depletion of important vitamins and minerals, due to malnutrition and alcohol-induced loss of nutrients. With alcohol addiction the question is not whether disease will occur, but in what part of the body it will occur first.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n <h3 class=\"amber-accent\"><i class=\"fas fa-heart mr-2\"><\/i>Extensive Damaging Effects to the Heart Are Possible<\/h3>\n <p>When a person drinks heavily over a long period of time, the heart muscle can weaken, droop and stretch. It can no longer efficiently pump blood. The result can be shortness of breath, fatigue, swollen legs and feet and an irregular heartbeat. Heart failure can follow.<\/p>\n \n <p>Alcohol disturbs the function of the heart that keeps it beating at an even rate and at the right speed. Binge drinking and long-term drinking both can result in a condition in which the upper chambers of the heart shudder but do not contract.<\/p>\n \n <p>Blood may not be pushed out of these chambers and so may clot. These clots, traveling to the brain or lungs, can kill.<\/p>\n \n <p>In another alcohol-caused condition, the lower chambers of the heart get too much stimulation and beat too quickly. These chambers are not able to fill up with blood like they are supposed to, so pumping becomes less efficient. The result is dizziness, lightheadedness, unconsciousness and even death.<\/p>\n \n <p>Alcohol changes the body's hormones and this can in turn result in the constricting of major blood vessels and high blood pressure can result.<\/p>\n \n <h3 class=\"amber-accent\"><i class=\"fas fa-ribbon mr-2\"><\/i>Cancer Is Another Effect of Alcohol Consumption<\/h3>\n <p>Studies have shown heavy alcohol consumption is implicated in mouth, throat, liver and breast cancer. Many people who get mouth cancer drink heavily. Five or more drinks per day have also been shown to increase the risk of colon or rectal cancer.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n <section class=\"section-card rounded-lg p-8\">\n <h2><i class=\"fas fa-baby amber-accent mr-3\"><\/i>The Youngest Victims<\/h2>\n <div class=\"text-lg leading-relaxed\">\n <p><strong>WHEN CONSUMED BY PREGNANT MOTHERS,<\/strong> alcohol enters the bloodstream, passes through the placenta and enters the fetus (unborn child).<\/p>\n \n <div class=\"warning-box\">\n <p>Alcohol can damage a fetus at any stage of pregnancy but is most serious in the first few months.
