if she drinks that often then thats normal... its all the liquid shes consuming and probably the lack of quality solid foods, like bread and red meats. When you go out drinking sometimes the next day you get the 'hangover runs'.\n\nIf she gets diahrea while drinking hurt stomach is just trying to purge the access fluids in her stomach to make room. She needs to detox her self for a week at least or lower her consumpution to 1 or 2 times a week

Alcohol is much worse for your body.  Case in point>  You know heavy drinkers develop liver problems?  The liver is there to filter poisons from the blood... alcohol is a poison, getting drunk is poisoning your body.  \n\nMarijuana contains many carcinogens like cigarettes, also poisons.  Getting stoned, though, poisons your body MUCH LESS than getting drunk.  Heavy smokers may experience lung problems, but their body does not degrade from it like alcohol.\n\nGetting stoned every night is far less taxing on the body and mind than getting drunk every not.\n\nNOW, if you only have a drink or two, this is better for you than smoking a bowl and getting stoned.  But if you are looking to get messed up, than weed is the way to go.

In a word, yes. Drinking too much water can lead to a condition known as water intoxication and to a related problem resulting from the dilution of sodium in the body, hyponatremia. Water intoxication is most commonly seen in infants under six months of age and sometimes in athletes. A baby can get water intoxication as a result of drinking several bottles of water a day or from drinking infant formula that has been diluted too much. Athletes can also suffer from water intoxication. Athletes sweat heavily, losing both water and electrolytes.\n\nWhen too much water enters the body's cells, the tissues swell with the excess fluid. Your cells maintain a specific concentration gradient, so excess water outside the cells (the serum) draws sodium from within the cells out into the serum in an attempt to re-establish the necessary concentration. As more water accumulates, the serum sodium concentration drops -- a condition known as hyponatremia. The other way cells try to regain the electrolyte balance is for water outside the cells to rush into the cells via osmosis. The movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from higher to lower concentration is called osmosis. Although electrolytes are more concentrated inside the cells than outside, the water outside the cells is 'more concentrated' or 'less dilute' since it contains fewer electrolytes. Both electrolytes and water move across the cell membrane in an effort to balance concentration. Theoretically, cells could swell to the point of bursting. \n\nFrom the cell's point of view, water intoxication produces the same effects as would result from drowning in fresh water. Electrolyte imbalance and tissue swelling can cause an irregular heartbeat, allow fluid to enter the lungs, and may cause fluttering eyelids. Swelling puts pressure on the brain and nerves, which can cause behaviors resembling alcohol intoxication. Swelling of brain tissues can cause seizures, coma and ultimately death unless water intake is restricted and a hypertonic saline (salt) solution is administered. If treatment is given before tissue swelling causes too much cellular damage, then a complete recovery can be expected within a few days.\n\nThe kidneys of a healthy adult can process fifteen liters of water a day! You are unlikely to suffer from water intoxication, even if you drink a lot of water, as long as you drink over time as opposed to intaking an enormous volume at one time. As a general guideline, most adults need about three quarts of fluid each day. Much of that water comes from food, so 8-12 eight ounce glasses a day is a common recommended intake. You may need more water if the weather is very warm or very dry, if you are exercising, or if you are taking certain medications. The bottom line is this: it's possible to drink too much water, but unless you are running a marathon or an infant, water intoxication is a very uncommon condition.

Generally alchohols r used for medical purposes except methanol which is highly poisonous and harmful. Mostly alchohol r not used as nutrients for daily use. They r just given as medicines.

The alcohol interferes with the absorption of the drug, & you could end up with toxic side effects.  If you want cirrhosis, it is your liver.

Most deodorant products contain aluminum. In large amounts aluminum can be harmful for people with kidney disease. However, minimal amounts of aluminum are absorbed into the bloodstream as long as the deodorant is applied to the skin as directed. Aluminum and aluminum-containing products do not have any effect on kidney stones

i don't think you have anything to worry about.  Too much of anything is dangerous, one guy killed himself by drinking too much water and not going to the bathroom.  Basically, to drink too much green tea to hurt you, you would probably have to drink it all day every day for a while without going to the bathroom.

All things in moderation.  Too much is anything that effects your normal functioning and responsibilities.  Any will effect the body. Some good effects, some bad.\n\nHere's a great source to answer this, without hitting copy paste with a long answer: \n\nhttp://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/alcohol.html

Most things are good, in moderation. Anything in excess could kill you (even water). There's nothing wrong with having a glass of wine every now and then, as David pointed out. It's making a habit of it, or depending on the wine to ease your spirits, that causes problems. Don't get drunk, and you're okay.

They put stress on your liver and kidneys.  They cause constipation.  They can lead to heart problems.

haven't found a cure, but watch out that stuff it kills your liver, get off now and get proactive.  it works great.  DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL OR GET PREGNANT WHILE ON IT!!! if you drink watch out it will make you sick as a dog.  if you are planning on getting pregnant in the next year to year and a half get off it now or you will have a messed up baby.  if your doctor did not put you on birth control get on it now as well.  about the drinking my doctor told me that acutane and drinking will litterally kill you so just be carful in everything you do while on it.  and remember after a while you will become immune to it.  if you are in your twenties or younger you will grow out of it. keep your stress level down and do everything that triggers acne to a minimum.  try to excercise more and drink your water and you will be alright.  soaps to use ivory if you have oily skin, proactive system, if you can't afford that loreal pure zone is a great over the counter system. it contains soap, astringent, and the lotion use it all on a regular basis and you will see a difference in a week or so.  but as far as acutane (from experince) i would get off it.

Moderate alcohol use may worsen bipolar illness\n\nThe effect of alcohol consumption on bipolar disorder severity may not be confined to heavy drinkers, say researchers who found adverse effects even for those who drink alcohol at levels consistent with low-risk drinking guidelines.\n\nThe effects of alcohol are dependent on a variety of factors, including a person's size, weight, age, and sex, as well as the amount of food and alcohol consumed. \nAlcohol is a depressant, which slows down thinking and actions\nModerate amounts of alcohol raise levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or "good" cholesterol),(6) and higher HDL levels are associated with greater protection against heart disease. Moderate alcohol consumption has also been linked with beneficial changes in a variety of factors that influence blood clotting, such as tissue type plasminogen activator, fibrinogen, clotting factor VII, and Von Willebrand factor.(6) Such changes would tend to prevent the formation of small blood clots that can block arteries in the heart, neck, and brain, the ultimate cause of many heart attacks and the most common kind of stroke\n\nAlcohol can be good for you and bad for you:\nModerately taken, it has some health benefits, however it is when you drink too much that the benefits turn into bad things.

Yes! That is so bad for you. Think of all that artificial sweetener just collecting into your liver and reeking havoc. Who knows what man made chemicals can do to a human over a period of time especially excessive amounts. Just drink water.

Alcohol is full of sugar.  Drinking (or getting drunk, or whatever) will make it difficult to build muscle mass simply because drinking is equivalent to eating chocolate, or cake, or anything else with sugar for that matter.  When you consume any form of simple sugar (processed goodies or alcohol) your pancreas must release more insulin to stabilize blood sugar (and when you drink heavily, or eat lots of sweets) you blow your insulin level through the roof!  You can dehydrate yourself this way...and this is how your muscles feel so terrible after drinking.

" Alcohol can cause all kinds of damage to the kidneys.  These effects can range from cell damage and enlargement of the kidneys to alcohols’ impact of the various hormones that control kidney function.  Alcohol creates an ionic imbalance in the body that can negatively affect many metabolic processes" "Alcohol destroys this delicate balance of the ions and water in the body by altering the filtering ability of the kidneys.  Although the exact mechanisms for how alcohol changes the kidney’s ability to function are not clearly known, the changes in ionic concentrations have been studied in humans and in animals for many years.  Kidney complications are even greater if a person has also been diagnosed with liver damage due to alcohol consumption."\nComplications of Alcohol – Kidney Link
