People tend to be alcohol addicted because they enjoy the after effects of this drug, which is said to be more tension free and relaxing. But is it so? The fact is, that this state is very temporary, only for few hours. Repeated use of alcohol is sure to damage the internal stomach parts and also affect the brain cells which can be fatal over a period of time.
