The major negative effects of long-term alcohol consumption are fatty liver, gastritis, short-term memory loss, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, mild hypertension, pancreatitis, and cardiomyopathy (heart muscle degeneration).
A recent government conducted medical study indicates that people with a variant of the DRD2 gene (a gene associated with dopamine function in the brain) may be more prone to receive pleasure from drinking; since this gen merely relates to the pleasure associated with drinking, this research cannot conclude that DRD2 causes alcohol dependence.
Older adults reach higher blood levels of alcohol even when drinking the same amount as younger people.
As of 1996, six million children under the age of 18 lived with a parent who was alcohol dependant.
