Alcohol is a toxin that the liver processes. A person begins to feel drunk and relaxed after drinking lots of alcohol because the liver cannot dilute all of this toxin. The alcohol that isn't diluted is put back into the bloodstream, which gives the person a good feeling. However, longterm use of alcohol can cause a permanent strain on the liver, causing lots of damage.
Because by drinking you are ruining your liver by yourself, it isn't a natural cause. The liver transplant is going to go to someone whose liver isn't functioning due to a natural cause. When your drinking you should be aware of all the side affects it can have. hope this helped:)
Think of the liver as responsible for 'cleaning' all the bad chemicals from your body. When you drink too much alcohol, which is a toxin, your body has to go into overdrive to clean the alcohol out of the blood. This can take the liver's concentration away from cleaning other things out of the liver too, like fatty substances. Hence, you can get 'fatty liver disease', liver damage and cirrhosis.
Some drinkers can become liver transplant recipients. David Crosby of Crosby Stills Nash and Young fame had a liver transplant in 1995 after a lifetime of drug and alcohol abuse.
