“How does drinking after your stomach and liver?”
I drink socially with friends and want to know the real effects of alcohol on the body. How does drinking after your stomach and liver?

The stomach is not affected much by alcohol directly. Alcohol gets absorbed quickly into the blood stream, so there is minimal impact to the GI tract. But the liver gets damaged if you drink too much. In general, an average of 2 drinks per day in men and 1 drink per day for women is considered safe. If you drink more than that chronically, then the liver can become cirrhotic.
