Alcohol is a depressant which alters your behaviour and slows down the nervous system. It highly damages your liver and your brain by slowing the nervous systems. There is a specific amount that people should take when drinking alcohol. Men are allowed to drink 21 units a week, whilst women can only drink 14 units a week.
