A member asked:
Can you tell me how is alcohol healthy for you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: Alcohol is an addictive and poisonous substance to your body. The feeling of being drunk is oxygen being cut off to your brain. A small amount of alcohol, 1-2 drinks, is not considered dangerous, but it is advisable to limit your drinking. Alcohol is a depressant that can also relax you but it affects judgement as well. Don't plan on driving after drinking, and remember how it affects judgement.
