The liver metabolizes alcohol and other bad molecules
The liver metabolizes alcohol and other bad molecules
Alcohol cannot be directly excreted thus needing to be transformed in order to be eliminated;
The processing of alcohol involves the production of acetaldehyde which is a foreign, toxic molecule so it is quickly transformed into a non-toxic molecule;
The consumption of alcohol faster on a regular basis than what the liver can process may cause it to become inflamed which can lead to cirrhosis and permanently scar the liver.
