No, not if you're consuming alcohol in moderation.
There are many false beliefs about alcohol, including the following: 1. Sucking on pennies will lower BAC readings 2. Alcohol abstainers are "alcohol free" (Everyone produces alcohol in their bodies 24/7) 3. Alcohol breath testers accurately measure BAC 4. Drinking coffee will "sober up" a person. 5. The minimum legal drinking age is 21 throughout the US under all conditions.
No, but you should not be drinking alcohol at such a young age. You lose brain cells while drinking in which can not be restored.
The legal Australian age for drinking alcohol is 18, however the human brain is still developing at this stage and drinking alcohol is not recommended until the age of 26. This is because alcohol will damage the brain at this stage.
You should not be drinking alcohol if you are trying to breastfeed your child.
Something greasy
You could have a non-alcoholic beverage while everyone else is drinking. No one has to know exactly what is in your glass. Some water can easily pass as alcohol, or juice as alcohol, too. Also, no one should force you to do something (especially something like drinking) if you do not want to.
Drive. Work on machinery
Yes.
no not at all you should never do that!!
People get drunk when they consume alcohol, which affects the central nervous system, slowing down brain function and impairing coordination and judgment. This can result in slurred speech, blurred vision, and altered behavior. Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol can lead to a range of health and safety risks.
The impact of drinking alcohol depends upon the quantity of alcohol that you drink. If you are also drinking water along with your alcohol, that does not alter the impact of the alcohol (although it can reduce the severity of the subsequent hangover).
