From the first sip, alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream and reaches the brain which deteriorates further the more you drink. Cognitive abilities that are acquired later in life, such as conduct and behaviour, are the first to go. Early on you will experience mild euphoria and loss of inhibition, as alcohol impairs regions of the brain controlling behaviour and emotion. Most vulnerable are the brain cells associated with memory, attention, sleep and coordination.

The body can naturally produce alcohol through a process called fermentation, primarily occurring in the gut.
