How can alcohol cause heart failure?

Answer 1

maybe because its bad for you? it also is because when alcohol gets in your system it runs through your blood and all your blood runs into your heart and when you drink its running through your heart and its a bad liquid, fatty and alcohol detriates your body and its poisounious? and that large amounts eventually cause heart disease , so in my best wishes just dont drink yourself to death :)

Researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina have found that middle-aged non-drinkers who began drinking in moderation experienced a 38% lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease compared to those who continued abstaining.

The study was published in the American Journal of Medicine.
