What Alcohol Does to Your Body

In some cultures, alcohol consumption is tolerated, in some others forbidden – because of its risks for health and society. Particularly, it's the dose which is crucial. So, what happens inside your body when you drink?
Just watch the video!

Thank you for this video. I drank a little to much last night and it was my first time actually getting drunk. I blacked out and woke up in surrounded by other passed out people at like 4am. Never again I was so stupid I have the worst hangover of my life.

it's dangerous ! I rebroke my toe and have lumps on my head from Thursday getting drunk I broke my toe 3 weeks ago same reason. I'm done!

I find it funny how nobody seems to know when to quit. You do realize you can get a little bit tipsy without having a horrible hangover, right?

In Canada, our government makes huge bucks off of alcohol sales. For those addicted to alcohol, they have no choice but to PAY for expensive rehab programs. If a person was addicted to prescription pills, there would be paid medical programs for them. Even a homeless drug addict can take their illegally purchased heroin to a tax payer funded injection site to be administered their drug with a clean needle and assure they do not overdose.
What's wrong with this picture?

Great for Teaching. you should make one for the effects of smoking! Thanks

[alsharifhusain]

And still more people want to drink!!!!

[ryanjensen]

also need to mention the fact that drinking a lot in one sitting will cause a person to pass out and also when that happens there is more alcohol in the stomach waiting to enter the blood stream. That is very dangerous and someone can succumb to alcohol poisoning.

'Lower doses of alcohol causes michael to lose his sense of balance'. Who loses their balance on a low dose of alcohol?!

@Udo Foster: thx, great to hear that! :) good to know that this simpleshow has helped you out
@DonMikimax: no, you can't say it like that. If you drink too much and/or too often or if you drink some sort of alcoholic drinks which aren't produced properly, there is then a high risk of death or severe health issues. But if you drink responsibly, that's something else. And of course: If you don't drink alcohol at all, you will minimize your own risk of death or health damage. Does that answer your question? :)

Lol I’m drinking a Miller while I’m watching this

[sweetlilweirdo]

I'm not being "That one person" but I don't like people who drink alcohol. Don't get me wrong. I have people I know who drink alcohol but if they're the ones who always drink it. Then I don't like it. My opinion, don't attack me.

[notthebasic]

Thank God I’m already insanely drunk! Otherwise I wouldn’t be watching this video and not knowing what’s going on😂

The government should prohibit alcohol to the masses.
We need the government to tell us how to live.

I like the effect it has but not to the extent of feeling sick.

[tobiaspolasek]

I was curious why i hear less to left ear than to the other one.. Well now i know :). Thanks a lot.

[vivalamusica]

how much is much? Because i don't drink as much as my friends for example but get thr same effect? is it risky for your health even when you get drunk from only like 4/5 shots?

Least Alcohol is better than a relationship 😂😉
