April Is Alcohol Awareness Month and today we're diving headfirst into the murky depths of alcohol and its dangerous effects on our bodies and brains. As a medical doctor, I've witnessed firsthand the devastating consequences of alcohol abuse especially as it pertains to high blood pressure and heart disease. It's a harsh reality that society often sweeps under the rug, but I'm here to shed light on this ugly truth.
You might think that casual drinking is harmless, but let me tell you, alcohol is a wolf in sheep's clothing. It sneaks up on you, slowly chipping away at your health until one day, if abused, you're left grappling with life-altering conditions like liver disease, heart disease, and even cancer. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
