Alcohol to most isn't even considered a drug. It's legal and easy to obtain. Alcohol is very much part of traditional and modern culture. However, abused it carries with it some heavy penalties for the user and society.
There are no two ways around it, alcohol is a drug. Abused many users end up in drug rehab. Like any other drug it acts as a poison to the body when taken in large volume. One of the main effects alcohol has is on "burning up" or using vitamins in a person's body when taken. The result is a sick and tired feeling after drinking it, commonly referred to as a "hangover". This "hangover" is really just the burning up of all the useful nutrients stored in the body. This can lead to illness.
As a person continues to use alcohol the vitamin stores are further burned up. This results in the person feeling sicker and more tired than before. The solution to the user seems to be more alcohol. The real result is a vicious cycle of worsening health and addiction.
Alcohol is abused by almost every age and socio-economic group. It is no small problem. Narconon offers alcohol addiction treatment.
