Chronic alcohol use can cause an overall reduction in brain size.
During the colonial times, alcohol consumption was quite common with men and women. It was a custom to pause for drinks several times a day.
When someone consumed alcohol, it's absorbed into a person's bloodstream. It then affects the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), which controls virtually all body functions.
The most common symptoms of alcoholism include: craving, (which is characterized by a strong need to drink), physical dependence, (includes a host of withdrawal symptoms), and tolerance (the need for increasing the amount of alcohol, to feel its effects).
