Alcohol's effect on the body?
So I'm in my second year of college, and of course I'm being exposed to a lot of alcohol and drug use. Now, before you go into lectures on the dangers of binge drinking, know that I've been responsible and have always stopped myself when I've felt that I've had too much.
But before I REALLY begin to venture into the world of alcohol, I need to know: How does alcohol affect the body? I know that its long-term effects can be very severe, but how exactly does it happen? What I mean is, do only very heavy drinking nights abuse the liver and such? Or can two shots of vodka every week add up to something very detrimental in the future? I don't plan on being a heavy user (just a few drinks on occasion), but I may not even go with the latter if it's that bad for you.

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
I have no desire to write a long diatribe on information you can and should have easily googled, I'll simply say that there are far better sources than this website to have this kind of thing explained to you, so you should go to google and look them up.
Long story short though you can drink a pretty significant amount and get drunk a pretty significant amount without really hurting yourself over the long term (assuming you don't crash a car or something).
