The dangers of alcohol are well known, with many advertising campaigns sent out by health organisations to try and scare us by outlining how alcohol can lead to heart and liver disease. In schools children are being taught about the danger they face by starting drinking early. You might think this is too young but nowadays it has to be done because of so many youngsters binge drinking and openly admitting to it.
But for those who are simply not disturbed by the shocking statistics or turn a blind eye, perhaps another thing to consider is the effect that alcohol abuse can have on your appearance. Yes, for those who invest as much in their lotions, potions and beauty products as they do on their weekend drinking habits, you might be shocked to find out that alcohol can adversely affect your appearance.
In the first instance, alcohol is notorious for damaging your skin. As well as drying your skin out and blocking pores, it can lead to premature ageing. It is a cause of spots too as well as tired looking, eyes with dark circles underneath them. So in essence, alcohol can make you look tired, old and spotty. Not a look that's likely to have you winning any beauty pageants, I'm sure you'll agree and no amount of aloe vera's going to fix it either. Oh and I forgot to mention that up to ten percent of the alcohol you drink leaves your body straight through your breath, sweat and urine. So yes, continued alcohol abuse can make you smell as well.
It can make you fat and give you cellulite, which means that in general alcohol has some horrible side effects that you really don't want. This is a major problem if you take pride in your appearance!
Of course, a far bigger concern than pimples and tighter fitting jeans is that of the very real threat of life threatening liver and heart conditions. Of course, nobody is saying that a single night out on the town will make you fat, ugly and life threateningly ill. But consistent and prolonged abuse of alcohol certainly could cause a host of worrying problems. So if you want to look good and feel good, it would be recommended that you undertake an alcohol detox.
