Negative effects of alcohol on health
Alcohol consumption has been linked to various negative health consequences such as high blood pressure, stroke, liver disease, cancer, mental health problems, cognitive issues, and weight gain. Even small amounts of alcohol regularly can have an incremental effect on health. The World Health Organization has stated that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption. The pleasurable effects of alcohol on the brain are due to its mimicking of certain brain chemicals like GABA and the release of dopamine and endorphins.
