A fact of alcoholism is that alcohol affects other systems in the body. Gastrointestinal tract irritation can happen with erosion of the esophagus and stomach linings, causing nausea, vomiting, even bleeding.
Over three million teenagers are alcoholics, and several million more have a serious drinking problem that they cannot manage on their own.
Caffeine does not affect the metabolism of alcohol by the liver and thus does not reduce breath alcohol concentrations or reduce the risk of alcohol-attributable harms.
College aged students that were heavy drinkers reported a much higher likelihood of recognizing the symptoms of alcohol poisoning in another student and providing the necessary assistance; students who are not familiar with the effects of alcohol may not recognize that help is needed.
