Alcohol is widely enjoyed, but drinking too much can seriously harm your  brain, liver, heart, and body

Why hangovers happen

Hangovers happen when alcohol’s toxins, dehydration, and poor processing make your body feel sick, tired, and foggy

Regular heavy drinking increases risk  of liver disease, cancer, heart problems, and lasting brain or memory damage

How it’s processed

Your liver turns alcohol into acetaldehyde, a harmful chemical  that causes nausea, headaches,  flushing, and general discomfort

Acetaldehyde’s danger
