When you think of the effects of alcohol, you likely think of feeling a little tipsy, being unable to drive, and maybe even waking up with a headache or full-blown hangover the next day. Oftentimes, we drink one night, wake up with a hangover, eat some greasy food and drink some water and go on about our life.
