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.

So now that alcohol is so easily available, the possibility of escape is so much easier, although the action of escaping your problems will only make them worse...we all know that. People will in fact become even more depressed and as a result will end up drinking more, the problems get bigger and you will just begin to lose track of what really is the problem in the end as the cycles continues.

These terrible succession of events will only lead to somebody becoming addicted to alcohol and suddenly they have a new problem to deal with, one which will be extremely difficult to resolve. Suddenly instead of being able to resolve one problem through communication, we now have a problem that will seriously effect our health and that will eventually kill us if actioned is not taken.

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 following process leads to these chemicals being changed into water and co2, which are then excreted from the body. This may all seem a very simple process but the liver is placed under a lot of stress in order to produce these function simultaneously. So if you begin to consume large quantities of alcohol the liver is unable to cope and therefore the alcohol levels in the blood stream rise.
