Alcohol: Is it good or Bad for your health?

Like smoking, use of alcohol has also become very common in teenagers as well as aged people. People usually drink alcohol occasionally and present lame excuses and justifications to defend their act but it is a fact that, it is dangerous and harmful even in small amount. The post is written to spread awareness against the alcohol.

Why you shouldn’t drink alcohol?

Alcohol has been stated as one of the leading causes of accidents in many countries around the globe. The worst part of this trend is that deaths that occur as a result of people abusing alcohol normally come as a result of reduced reaction time and other problems emanating from the brain’s failure to function normally. All the fatalities in this case can be completely avoided if the consumption of alcohol was to be regulated. Therefore, it is one of those problems which mankind has brought up as a result of consuming some substance which harms the body. For some reason, it is even believed that victims of alcohol abuse eventually become addicted to it and end up harming themselves badly.

In some cultures the harmful nature of alcohol does not sting them because their traditions have managed to take it up as part of their diets naturally. But when you look at the sociological aspect of alcohol, you can find that the people who have been taking it have faced serious sociological issues. The commonest of them is the misuse of money that is meant for the family on alcohol and strained relations in the family. Such people drink with the view of getting intoxicated not as a way of supplementing the diet.

Harms to expecting mothers:

Alcohol has also been noted to be the cause of many serious ailments. For example, expecting mothers have been told to avoid taking alcohol as it might result in either delivering underweight babies, or intoxicated babies. But the worst case scenario is that the same alcohol has sometimes been linked to miscarriages or the delivery of premature babies. In any case, it can be said that alcohol does not help anyone to improve their livelihood when abused.

Diseases caused by alcohol:

Anemia, cancer, cirrhosis, depression, high blood pressure, depression, pancreatitis, nerve damage and cardiovascular diseases are some major diseases that are caused by drinking alcohol.
