effects on the body....

There are many things bad things that can happen to you. The stages of intoxication tell you about what can happen as you drink more and more. Stage 1: is A social Lubricant.After one or two drinks you are more talkative and your heart rate will speeds up a little. This gives your body an "up" feeling. This is the effect when people say that alcohol makes them feel more sociable. Step 2: is Giddy Up! After a couple more drinks you will feel light headed. Your cordination and reaction time will be impaired. And your abilitys to make decisions is slowed down. Step 3: I'm perfectly shober! After a few more drinks(7-9) people will show definite signs of alcohol effects. Drinking more that 8 drinks at a time will seriously overload the liver. Step 4: Nobody's friend...Drinking more than 10 drinks at a time has most people staggering about where they are. Accidents can happen very easily. Fights can happen quick, just by bumping into someone could easily make them mad. This amount of alcohol will be effecting cells all over the body. Step 5:Unconscious or Dead:( 30 drinks is enough to knock a person out. From that point its a short time to heart failure and brething slowly to stop. Even if someone is unconscious the alcohol in the body can still be absorbed andreach lethal levels. Well those are all the steps to INTOXICATION. I hope you learn a lot about this and are careful when you drink.
