Alcoholism and problems with alcohol tends to run in families.
When alcohol is consumed into the body it is converted to acetaldehyde in the liver. Acetaldehyde is a toxic substance that can be harmful to the body. For the normal drinker, the liver quickly coverts acetaldehyde into a substance called acetic acid. Acetic acid does not have the same toxic or harmful qualities as acetaldehyde. The body then converts acetic acid into carbon dioxide and water which is released through the body�'s urinary and respiratory systems.
By the time students are in the eighth grade, 55 percent of students have at least tried alcoholic beverages.
The negative health effects of long term alcoholism include fatty liver and cirrhosis, cardiomyopathy (breakdown of heart muscle), brain shrinkage and cell death (particularly memory areas), ulceration, and inflammation of the pancreas.
