Alcohol is processed like a carbohydrate, and is taken in to be oxidized by the cells. Since it is already in liquid form, alcohol is absorbed through the stomach lining into the bloodstream. However, its effects on the body trigger its prompt removal by the kidneys. As much as 5% to 10% of consumed alcohol is excreted without oxidation. Alcohol can block normal metabolism in the liver and pancreas, and excessive or prolonged use can cause severe organ damage.

When you eat, the food passes through your entire digestive tract. The body extracts nutrients from the food you eat. Food is first transformed into chyme and later into fecal matter. The anus is where fecal matter exits the body.
In the rectum are two bands of muscles called sphincters. While the body has sphincters in a number of places, including the eyes, the sphincters in question here are the sphincter complexes of the rectum. When you have to defecate, these two bands of muscles are used to push the stool out the anus. Otherwise, these muscles close off the rectum and help protect it.
