Drinking Alcohol – what’s the worst that can happen? Uploaded by: www.kick-the-drink.co.uk Soundtrack: “On The Run” by Andreas Lutz (www.shockwave-sound.com) Most, if not all drinkers are well aware of the immediate and obvious effects of drinking alcohol — the release of inhibitions, the increased sociability and the general feeling of the “high” — but how many really understand what is going on within their bodies when they continue to drink heavily for long periods of time. Sure, we all know that some unfortunate people end up with cirrhosis of the liver, but then, it’s only a few isn’t it? It’s tempting to think therefore that the damaging effects caused by excessive drinking is an either/or situation. Either the harm will be severe and disastrous, or it won’t occur at all (and probably won’t occur to us…) The fact is, however, that the risk of harm from excessive drinking increases rapidly once the recommended daily or weekly limits are exceeded, and damage can occur without the drinker even being aware of it.
