Alcohol is neurotoxic to the brain, cardiotoxic to the heart and hepatotoxic to the liver, all dose and duration dependent. The liver having an ability to heal itself, if given the chance, the brain and heart less so. As we age, AFIB is a more common heart problem among drinkers.
How you, as an individual, metabolize alcohol on steady long term basis, simply depends on how God made you. Some more sensitive than others.
