Dependency is the most serious condition since the person needs higher quantities of alcohol to achieve intoxication. Also, if alcohol is reduced or stopped, a dependent alcoholic will experience withdrawal symptoms.
Studies on the negative health effects of alcohol abuse have consistently reported that alcohol causes a great amount of gastrointestinal irritation, particularly of the stomach and esophagus.
If someone begins consuming alcohol at an early age, they are 40% to 60% more likely to become an alcoholic, regardless of family history, and studies indicate a potential for permanent memory impairment.
An early age of drinking onset can be linked to alcohol-related violence not only among persons under age 21 but among adults as well.
