We have begun to see over recent years that our society has been really hard bit by an illness which has been around for years...alcoholism. As pressures grow on us and there always seems something to worry about in todays modern consumer society, this deadly disease lets rip on us.

More and more people seek an escape from these modern demands and pressures many times at the bottom of a bottle without the realization that this will only worsen the problems they are experiencing in their social life or workplace. Alcohol by nature acts as a depressant, which means that the more you drink, the more despair and unhappiness you will feel. Thus a vicious cycle begins.

An individual seeks to escape in alcohol, the problems worsen, the individual seeks more alcohol for escape...so on and so on. This is the cycle that inevitably leads to alcohol addiction. The result of these actions on the body is disastrous as the body cannot keep up with the ever increasing levels of intoxication.

The alcohol that we choose to deal with our problems will now pass down our throat and into the stomach, and from here it is absorbed into the blood stream and will then pass into the liver. This organ is responsible for breaking alcohol into a variety of chemicals.

The subsequents functions of the liver will turn these chemicals into h2o and co2, which are then just excreted from our organism. This all sounds quite simple but this function bears a lot of strain on the liver to produce such changes. The problem begin though when even more alcohol is consumed as the liver is not able to deal with it. The result being that the alcohol level in our blood will begin to rise.
